Hardy Bougle MKV 3" Centenary Edition Fly Reel 3-Piece One of the first things

One of the first things I checked on this rod was the reel seat spacer -- made of tiger stripe maple -- whose amber color came from a heat-treating process and which marks it as one of the rods that I worked on myself at Leonard fairly early in my rodmaking career

Strong fixed check

#2066 wet on the wrap flat just above the male ferrule on one tip and #2066 dry on the other

Also very capable of swinging wet flies

Excellent- used condition with pouch
