Your Fault Dry Rod - flygoddess - 07-13-2008

Got on e-bay...AGAIN! I am in the process of building a bamboo rod so the old man was looking for a classic reel for me.
Look what we scored.

SOUTH BEND

Now two problems....one, I already bought GREEN SILK for the wraps on my bamboo and two, it is right hand retrieve.

But look at it here:

Nope, not according to the experts, but it will be okay, cause this will be on a bamboo, which will be for rivers and I realized today while on the Provo, I strip the line and hardly ever use the reel. The drag is awesome.
I just got to put the Green Silk aside for another project and order some Burgundy or Blood red....no biggie, I bet there is a few more things besides thread I could use.[bobWink]
