TT opinion: When Ted started production of the Tibor reels in 1995, they have been extremely popular ever since. All reels are individually marked. This one is numbered A706. Large outer hub offers retrieve with low backing, black handle with balanced counter opposite the handle and perforated drum and spool which makes the reel stay lighter and cooler. The reel comes complete with its spare spool and green Tibor reel case and outer original box.
