Post by: Redduffin on February 14, 2020, 03:01:32 PM

Hey guys, I’m looking for a 5” kingfisher bearing model early years up to year 2007 preferably clear drum bronze backplate.
Must be in good condition!
Thanks
Justin

To my knowledge the first couple 5" Kingfishers were not made untill 2004/2005 under Talisman Reels and were bushing but there was a few prototype bearing models at the tail end of that era but in 4 3/8".
  In 2006 Kingfishers were built under John Milner Reels and there was a few 5" bearings around as well as in 2007 and onward.   Good luck in your search!

Good info opwins, Thankyou.
I’m after the 2006-2007 model.
I sold one a few years back, of course regret doing so!
