A while back I cleaned and serviced a Zebco 33 reel that I had found in the basement at the cabin. A few weeks ago I removed some fishing rods from the boathouse and after researching one of the rods I have discovered that the rod and reel are a combo set!!! The rod is a Zebco 3366-6 model. It is a little rough with some whipping that is frayed or missing so I plan to restore it somewhat but keep the originality if possible. The way the reel secures to the handle is pretty neat. There is a ring in front of the cork part of the handle that you turn and as you turn it, the metal tab pivots to lock the foot of the reel to the reel seat, and it works!!! Anyhoo, I think it is super cool that I have now reunited the rod and reel combo.
