West Germany. The 110 was first offered in 1967.

I have a 330 model (on the left) that will be seeing action soon. It was sent to me by a fellow forum member.

Really nice reels. I wanted one for my rod back when I was in my early teens, but couldn't afford it.
My first UL rod was a DAM Quick, I had to settle for a Garcia Mitchell 308 to mount. The rod had rubber or silicone sleeves on both ends of the reel seat, so when you tightened the seat, they met and you were holding that material instead of metal.
I wore the gills out in my Grandmother's 15 acre lake with that combo. Still have the 308 but don't remember what happened to the rod.

Sounnds like some good time! I didn't know that DAM also made rods. Guess this means I'll have to find one now to pair with the reel. :yikes

Neat!

Nice work on the reel. That big ‘cracker is a stud, as are a few of the gills. I find some here on the river now and then. They fight like no other.

That is a super nice ShellCracker, would like to tangle with him in some JDM UL gear. I hit an 8in today in a small lake near Lynchburg VA and he gave me a fit for sure.

Caught a few more this evening. The shellcrackers and gill are right up on the bank. Nearly all my catches were less than 18" from the bank. Could another spawn be on?

I've been using the older version of that reel. The Quick Microlite. I've got a couple of 110's and a 110N as well. Nice reels.

Very nice fish! The gear is neat as well!

Good friend of mine found a active bed using with his side scan. He took 12 good gills off of it. They have multiple spawns many times corresponding with the full moon.
