New Toy

















It is a sad day that I had to pick this up after a shop closure, but yeah its a big win anyway. I have been looking for one of these for years and finally was able to punch the card last week with this one. Berkley-Triangle line winder and new backing for all the reels. I even picked up an old Ross Colorado for next to nothing. Man I hate to see Circle K disappear, especially with the history of walking through that store since I started fly fishing. But man I was excited when I got the news from a good buddy that was there the first day of the sale that yes, this one was all mine. It has already been put to good use after some minor modifications and cleaning. I think I will have to find a few more reels now.
