Just thought I'd give everyone a heads up.
They have a ton of the Shakespeare 2BB spinning reels for $5. Picked up 5 yesterday.
I built another ice Rod this year, and my buddies each built two rods. Last few years I have been picking up these reels at $5 a pop for Rod builds. If a person cleans out the grease in the reel then re lubes the reel with Lucy's reel oil....they are one heck of a smooth reel for ice fishing.

What size reel?
-
Small normal sized ice reel. Also have larger ones…but the larger open water reels tend to be a little more.
4# stren line that comes on it isn’t to bad either. I’ve used it I’ve fishing and it’s fine.

Probably a size 10 arbor then. Maybe a 20.
