So.... I recently bought a new old stock 9/10 Hardy Golden Prince plus 2 spare spools to go with an 'Epic' purchase but, unfortunately, the reel foot is too 'old school' (just too chunky) for the funky reel seat on the Epic. Bugger.
I have other reels so have elected to sell the reel and spools as I'm not changing the reel foot to fit the rod
The reel fits all my other Salmon rods without issue. One spool has been loaded with a line, but this is about to be fitted to something else.
Almost impossible to find one of these new, lovely reel and super-affordable. Set for left hand wind but is easily switched to right hand if needed. Makes a super noise
I've cleaned out all the old grease, re-greased it and it's good to go
