Bogdan 00 Fly Reel LHW

Bogdan 00 Fly Reel LHWA superb Bogdan 00 fly reel, set up for LHW. Mint condition. Although the reel comes with a green 444 line I cannot find a single scratch or scuff to show any use. A desirable 3 1 4" diameter, this is often described as the Bogdan "Grilse" model, and weighs 10 ounces and holds a #7 line with 75 yards of backing. It is a double action multiplier retrieve and boasts the famous Bogdan brake drag system. Champagne anodized frame, with silver crank handle,

Random spacing nodes wrapped light brown

one slightly larger size than the other

green edges at keeper

An Aroner Hunt Pattern fly rod here

No roller die stamp on the cap and there is no rear cork check but a wood lip straight to the grip

I suspect that this makes this rod one of a kind as I don't know of any others that have received similar treatment

It has a square thread downlocking seat with pocket nickel silver cap over a butternut spacer

The black high speed steel snake guides are wrapped in may rose silk and edged in orange

The grip is as clean as the day it left the shop

An excellent Payne 98 fly rod
