petelangevin 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2020 I have plenty of bobbins, It was just one i had tried but never bought one Its not plastic know its not loon Must have been the umpqua/tiemco one It was twisted offset in a way. i really like the old chase bobbins, loaned my two away and you guess the rest. i have 2 rites, 2 griffin, renzetti and 5 norvise bobbins. Probably a half dozen generic too. Kind of a hoarder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fish Finder 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2020 Yep, petelangevin, that is the one that came to my mind. It used to be my favorite bobbin, but it is no longer made according to somebody I contacted at Umpqua. I still have several I use occasionally. Now, I use mostly the Rite bobbin carrier.

SalarMan 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2020 I'll second Pete's post with a couple of photos of what I have. Nice bobbin...but...for me I found I wished it were a little shorter. It has a nice heft to it which helps hold materials in place when it is just hanging there and is comfortable in hand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
