#1386Thanks! This one is narrow, but I have both. Wide one doesnt fit on any of my rods.. I do not want to file reel foot to fit so it stays as it is right now.
P.S. I replied private message to sisyphusmpn

#1387Understand your reluctance to file it. The foot of my wide spool had already been filed down before I found it, which spared me the dilemma.
Re: Classic Reels at Work!
#1388Can you post that filed reel feet here or in private message? Thanks!
Re: Classic Reels at Work!
#1389Will send you a PM with a picture of the Valdex next time I see it. I am not often at the place it is at these days. But it’s just a simple shortening of the front end of the foot when set up LHW.

#1390The mighty Pflueger Medalist, 1492 size. Pfoot installed by Russ Gabel of Frazier Mtn, and expertly done I might add. Mounted on a 6' Duracane, half of a DT4, a great combo for the tight stream in the background. I have finer reels, but for this sort of combat fishing I take along the Medalist.

#1391Pretty wild Brown Trout caught in early June on the <redacted>.
Reel is a two screw lineguard Featherweight on a pre-fire Leonard 38H.
And just for fun, I added a snap of our old pal Afgantrout, aka Michael Simon. He started this thread back in '07, 70 pages ago! He's on the far left. A gang of us had a good day fishing, lying, and eating a baked bean lunch back in May.

#1392Great post PK! I miss Afgantrout's posts of wonderful rods and reels, but yours are every bit as good!
Re: Classic Reels at Work!
#1393Aw shucks, John.
I'll pass your regards on to Michael. He's had some challenges but I suspect you haven't seen the last of him here.
Leonard-Mills 44, F.E. Thomas 7 1/2', Andy's Yellow Stonefly. (Andy's on the far right in above pic).

#1394I hope we haven't seen the last of him. A good man with a passion for the history of our sport.Short Tip wrote:

#1397Permit on a fly....... "(not a big one)" doesn't matter - any Permit on a fly is a major deal! Well done Pancho!
Re: Classic Reels at Work!
#1399Thanks, they fish as good as they look! The name of the fish is on the reel, can’t beat that!
