SKU: VFT3087
For sale here is an extremely scarce left hand retrieve Hardy St. George 3" fly reel with three-screw latch from post-WWII with unblemished agate line guide. Most of the original leaded finish (and lacquer) remains. All original and in excellent condition throughout. Unmolested ribbed brass foot and duplicated MKII check (both pawls engageable). The ebonite handle spins freely. The tension regulator works as intended. Nice strong check throughout its range. Comes with original Hardy box missing its label.
It may be a very long time before we see another true left-hand wind Hardy. Don't miss out on this one!
