Shilton CK 3 fly reel

CK3 (3.3"/5.1 oz./6-7/WF6 F + 110 yd. 20 # WF7 F + 100 yd. 20 #)

Fantastic reel with excellent drag. I used it as a 4-5 wt reel for big tailwater trout on 6x tippet and it was great. You can also crank the drag down and use it as a 6-7 wt reel. I have been fishing bamboo more and graphite less and this reel is too light to balance out my bamboo. Excellent condition w/ factory leather case. $250 shipped w/ Paypal.

AJ Thramer 7.5' 2/2 FE Thomas Browntone- 4/5 wt

This rod has been fished a few times and is perfect condition except for slight cork soiling. It is a med. fast rod in my opinion and can throw some tight loops with a DT 4. It is one of the easiest casting bamboo I have ever tried and would be great for someone coming from graphite. I have used it for dry flies, nymphs and small streamers and it is a great rod. I just picked up a 7.5' quad and a 7.5' Leonard on a whim and three of the same length doesn't make sense for me. $650 shipped w/ Paypal.
