Gavin Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Diameter and weight please. A tackle dealer friend might be able to move it. Any interest in an older Ari Hart? Caged reel with a 3wt on it. The 1950's Hardy LRH I bought from you years ago is still fishing.

BilletHead Well somebody needs to try it. The dang thing has been around since I graduated from High School and it still hasn't been taken fishing. I'm assuming that the warranty has expired.
Gavin Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Not made anymore, Bogdan died 10 yrs ago or so. It's collectible value is certainly higher than it's functional value.
Flysmallie Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 It’s a fishing reel. It has no value until it completes the task for which it was created. fishinwrench and patfish 1 1
fishinwrench Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 My dad had one of those Winchester mod94 John Wayne edition lever guns, it was real pretty. I said, let's go shoot this thing. He says, Naw I don't wanna get it dirty. I said, I'll clean it. Nope, he wasn't having any part of it. So I said, If I was John Wayne I'd kick you in the knee. He says, "If you was John Wayne they'd be giving them away in a box of Cracker Jack's. Now put it away and go shoot the Marlin"
Brian K. Shaffer Posted March 15, 2018 Author Posted March 15, 2018 The reel is 3.25 inches in diameter and weighs 5.5 ounces. Holds a WF7F with 50 yards of 20 pound, but holds a ton of backing with a WF6F. It is unfished, unmounted to a rod, and that $2500 price tag does not include shipping and insurance. Should add $25 or so. Gavin - I miss that reel every time I see one. I am sure you are taking excellent care of it..

ColdWaterFshr Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 If you got that kinda scratch laying around, you should just go ahead and buy 2. One to fish with and the other for yer museum. patfish 1
