For 50 years I've been fishing with Mitchell 300's and the like. I am old enough to be dead soon and this is all my accumulated reels and parts. My siblings will just throw it all in a dumpster. People would come to me knowing I loved a well-functioning 300. Some work, some are tight, some have parts missing and some are complete.

 

2 - 306's - One in poor condition

9 - 300's and one is a right handed

1 - 204 and 1- 304

9 - extra spools, some deep/some shallow

Whole bunch a different parts (look closely)

No matter if I was a child on the Schuylkill River in Pa. or if I was in the deep forest of Quebec as an old man, The mechanical beauty and retrieve rate of this French machine was addictive.
