Have my 70s 300 and my Grandfather's and Father inlaws. 4 total and a 308. Thank You for your efforts in this. The Memories fishing with both of them wonderful. Going to clean service them and put on new Rods.
Took apart my dads old 300 today thanks to your video . Completely seized it was. Really tough to pull apart where the main brass gears are but got it done.
My dad had a set of these Mitchel 300s bought when he got out of the air force in 47 used them till the late 80s we fished 3 4 times a week .I admired them really what a great reel
true are great at least you got the memoirs with youres being youre dads these old reels are almost indestructible i use mine for slow rolling float fishing or inline spinner fishing and top water or with plastic baits for bass and trout and for catfishing with dow bait i got the original rod with mine as well its a fantastic reel built like a tank
Hello friend, I want to congratulate you for your video about the fishing machine. I have had the same machine since 1968. I got it as a gift from my uncle, so now I want to ask you something, you must know more about the fishing machine. How many meters of thread does it collect on the reel, if it is of the following thicknesses of fishing line, for example: from 0.18 mm., 0.20 mm., and 0.23 mm. If you know, I will ask you for an answer, if not, then I will ask one of your fans for this question. You can also point me to a website, where I can read about this question of mine. GREETING
im not sure but if i had to guess 6 pound test at 150 yards and 8 pound test at 125 yards and 10 pound test at ummm like maybe 100 yards those are rough guesses if i had to guess i don't have a chart to go bye with with this reel on the account its so old using it with monofilament fishing line don't ask me what mm of braaied line it takes i have no clue hope this helps you out

Thanks for the vid, more light is needed to show the placement of the washers inside the head etc.
