Soon to join me is this Hardy 4 inch 'Eureka.' It's in virtually unused condition, and resides in it's original box. Couldn't resist !

That's my idea of a perfect reel, simple yet elegant :-)

I have always admired the Eureka reel. One day perhaps I will have one!

I do like that Mal.

Well done Mal, condition wise it is one of the nicest I have seen

Having the knurled on/off ratchet nob it dates to about 1951 ... same age as me. I just wish I could say the same about my condition !!!

That does look very nice indeed. Another reel that Hardys could remanufacture.

well done Mal
I hope to add one of those to my collection one day

Very nice indeed. That would look good gracing any rod.

That is a super reel that would grace any rod.
