Thank you! I love all three featherweights. I’m especially fond of the 8’.

[NewUtahCaneAngler]

Since you guys seem to like Featherweights and Heddon's here are 3 different types of featherweights :-)




For 20-25% of the going rate of the Hardy, the Heddon is a pretty decent reel. The foot is a bit thicker, so it won't fit all of the rods that my Hardys will, but it will fit enough to justify keeping it.

Cheers,
Joe

Lon,

I like the reel seat hardware on those South Creek rods.

Three Brook Trout Fly Shop Hats

Three hats from rod builder Chris Barclay

Three early Phillipson Paramounts with the plastic "root-beer" reel seat and so-called hammer handles: an 8 1/2-foot 5 oz. version, the 8 1/2-foot Dry Fly special at 5 1/2 oz. and an 8-foot 4 1/4 oz. This was the second-best fly rod in Phillipson's stable. I believe the gold-colored butt caps were meant to denote its high status.

A trio of "blue collar" royalty for the hoi polloi. Maybe not as pretty as the other beauties in this thread but they sure are fun to cast.

7'9" Tonka Queen
7' Princess
7' Ward's Sport King M/71 (Tonka Prince)

[teter]

Nice group of H-I.'s best rods. I've owned and fished all three -- the Tonka Queen still stands out.

Three J.W. Young Jubilee reels.

[Godfroy]

Those Young reels are really nice. I only have one of them, unfortunately. Paul.

Here are the three most reviled Orvis bamboo rods or most beloved by the few that appreciate them. From left to right, the Seven/Three, the Midge, and the Nymph. Not the rods to take out West to fish the Missouri, but they do well here in the Driftless especially after the caddis and sulphurs are long gone. When the water is low and clear and delicate casts are needed for the tricos of late summer and small BWOs and midges of fall and winter, they come into their own. Their great roll casting ability is a plus on brushy streams too. Incredible casting feel, I swear I can feel my loop unfurl. But yes, you need to slow your casting stroke way, way down, which is not for everyone.

Having just acquired my third Karstetter I'd thought I'd partake in this thread too. Below are the three of Marty's rods I currently have. An 8' 2/2 5wt., an 8'3" 3/2 4/5wt. and a 7'6" 4wt.

[teter]

Three Dingley Perfect-style reels, 3 1/8" diameter. Two are marked as Alex Martin Thistles; the third is unmarked. All three have the "D" stamp inside.

[Peales]

Three 7~1/2ft, 4wt rods.
