What is that reel ? English made or are there any marks? Their is a classic forum at www.clarksclassicflyrodforum.com that is helpful in getting info. If that email address is wrong , go google and type in classic fly rod forum and it will come up. They have a section just on reels.

Very sweet reel, Castaway. Yes, reel envy is hard to cure, but that one should help you feel better!

Man! You have got reel envy Baaaaaad. I think the only cure would be to send me some of those "Tools of Evil" Do you get cold sweats and the shakes when you see a nice reel? All signs of terminal reel envy. Poor boy, so young and so addicted :doh: .
