thank you green hornet after discovering this reel from my grandpa I was intrigued about Alvey reels. I only recently started fishing mainly lures on light gear with my son. After deliberation I bought a 12” rod and 650 Alvey reel which I hope to enjoy after covid19. Thank you for your patience and time for this noobie 

No problem Mick, its always a pleasure to help where I can. I must admit almost all my fishing is done with spin reels and lures these days, but there are times when I feel like soaking a pilly off the beach and sitting in the sun.

Your 12 footer and 650 will last you a lifetime if you look after it and you'll be handing it down to your son one day. I still have a couple of my Dad's from the 1950's.
