Fishing The Fly Scotland Forum

Hamish Young

As the title says folks, I have up for grabs my much cherished 'original' Orvis Battenkill Large Arbor V plus a spare spool, in black.
These are in near 'mint' condition, truly like new with the most minor of fishing marks. The reel foot is missing some paint, so I have revised the 'all in' price.

I am a tackle tart (I know it's true :!) and the truth is I'm not using these at all. I need to clear some stuff to buy some stuff, so this is up for grabs.
This light weight large arbour reel machined from 6262-T6 aerospace grade aluminium will accommodate most lines in the 7-9wt category and plenty of backing, I've used the reel for single handed Salmon fishing but switched to an Abel reel. These reels are sought after in this condition and fetch very good money on ebay.

I'm offering the reel, spool, reel case & spool bag as a job lot including Europe-wide postage for £135.

Send me a PM or email if interested.

H :cool:
