A nice Bogdan 300 Abercrombie and Fitch model salmon reel, 3 3/4" diameter and set up for RHW. 1 1/2" spool width. It weighs 14 ounces on my scale. Good used condition with some minor cosmetic wear though nothing serious. The reel has little actual rash, but has residue from fly line stickers, and lines in a few places, and a good clean should do the trick on most of them. Used but not abused. Gold anodized spool, frame, and side plates. Black anodized foot, crank, counterbalance, drag selector, and oil cap. As is customary on these models, the reel has the model number stamped on the other side and "68-63" stamped on the side of the reel foot. This reel has large take-apart screws and the revered Bogdan drag design. 2:1 multiplier retrieve. The reel comes in a purple Crown Royal pouch (good salmon mojo!). As Bogdan fans know, finding larger models suitable for medium to large spey rods is tough these days and this one is a good example of one of Stan's earlier A&F models.
