When H.I. began making the skeleton reels they wanted to compete with Winchester and Montague by designing a reel that mimic’s it almost to the point you cant tell the difference. This reel does not show yardage or a underline under the foot which clearly helps to identify as H.I. Box is really clean with a clear label. Fantastic combo never seen.
