The Weekly Catch
The market for classic tackle remains robust. Fine rods and reels have been flying off the shelf of late. I was however able to get away recently for a day trip to the Delaney Buttes Lakes here in Colorado (sans camera), where I christened my recently acquired Marty Karstetter 8'6 5wt hollowbuilt rod. All I can say is that I am in love and will be taking this rod everywhere this year. Marty's rods are beyond awesome. If anyone wants to sell one, please let me know.
I think I'll begin posting a WANT TO BUY section in each newsletter going forward. Here's a list of current customer requests. If you have one or know of any friends willing to sell one, please contact me:
- Hardy Brass Face Perfect 2 5/8" (Houghton)
- Charlton 8550 spey spool only - RHW Mint
- Hardy St. George 3" or 3 3/8" - LHW pre-war
- Saracione SCA 3 5/8"
- Wayne Maca rods
- Marty Karstetter rods
Please see below for more amazing rods and reels listed recently.
