How do I know what spools I have?

[jamesbaxternelson]

Hi there. I have two Mitchell spools that I am unsure what reel(s) they are for. If I provide some pictures, can you help me?

Thanks

James

jamesbaxternelson,
to the Mitchell Reel Museum.
I'm pretty sure pictures will get some replys.

OK. Thanks. How do I add pictures to a post?

[jamesbaxternelson]

Here they are. Figured it out.

James,
I am pretty sure those are for the Mitchell 300 reel family.
Kind Regards,
Bill

Thank you. I only have one Mitchell Reel. A 300c. Will those spools fit that reel?

[Bailarm]

Yes, they will fit a 300C OK, you have a deep and a shallow spool there, the shallow being the one with the most line on. It looks as though that spool has a buckled clutch adjuster possibly.

[jamesbaxternelson]

Thank you. What and where is the buckled clutch adjuster?

[Ted Lanham]

jamesbaxternelson,
Bailarm may be talking referring to the drag adjustment knob on one of the spools. It looks to be a little wonky.
