Hardy Featherweight Fly Reel with Spare Spool 7'9" One tip's silk wraps areA nice Hardy Featherweight fly reel with a spare spool, 2 7 8" diameter and set up for LHW. I could find little to no signs of use, it may have possibly been on a rod once but I can't say for sure. Brown finish to the frame with a brass two screw spool release and foot. The reel packs into a blue Hardy padded pouch with the paperwork and a spare spool in a black leather drawstring bag.
