Charlton 8450C Reel with 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 Spools 7'2" blonde blank with yellow wraps

blonde blank with yellow wraps and black tipping

The tip-tops are full length tapered tubes with perfect small hoops and a perfection die stamp (I wish that these were made today

The reel was purchased new in 2003

Charlton 8450C Reel with 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 Spools 7'2" blonde blank with yellow wrapsA very nice Charlton 8450C fly reel with all three spools (3 4, 5 6, and 7 8). Near mint condition with two faint mounting marks on the foot, one tiny nick on the frame near the crossbar, and one tiny nick on the edge of the 7 8 spool. Superb otherwise, and the reel and spools appear to have spent most of their time in the case. Set up for LHW but can be easily reversed to RHW. A very nice package here and with all three spools you can easily tailor
