flybum 95 Report post Posted June 19, 2014 It's pretty much just a different style. It looks like more of a traditional style. Put one of those on a nice old glass rod and you'll have a pretty neat set up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Castnblast 86 Report post Posted June 19, 2014 i have a few - literally from the 70's. Every serious steelhead guy on the north shore used to load a 72 with 10-12lb maxima and strip and flip.Classic reel, pretty heavy. Make for good paper weights in the garage!
