Abel Creek Series Trout Reel [SALE PENDING] HL Leonard This Orvis 1874 Limited EditionA nice Abel Creek Series trout reel. LHW. 3 1 4" diameter, with a 3 4" spool width and 1 1 8" overall width. Serial #A6350. 6. 8 oz on my scale, with a 6wt line and backing. This reel has a few speckles of rim rash, I'd call it 90% new. This reel also has the extended foot that puts the reel closer to the fulcrum point of the hand. The owner's name is engraved on the back of the reel. All black anodized and comes in the original Abel pouch.
