Gil's shot of his early Hardy Perfects inspired me to share this little assortment of reels from Akron, Ohio and Kalamazoo, Michigan. No-where near as well made as those Hardy reels, but appropriate for the blue collar cane that I'm fishing these days. They range in age from the early 1930s to the early 1970s. To me they are the pumpguns of the fly tackle world. Relatively cheap, fun, and very efficient.
