The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

As Henry Ford once said....."You can have any colour you like,as long as it's".......So,here's another Sagarra half-bale,Model 51 and in excellent condition.Its gear housing was full of compacted grease which I've since put right.I'm guessing the Sagarra paint warehouse had just the one pot of paint labelled 'REALLY INTERESTING GREY'.I think I've now got 9 Sagarra's.When they're all lined up they look like a tank battalion.

It would look rubbish in Magnolia Russell.

Fair point Cat.

Indeed Russel, there should be a competition for the worst colour on a reel...I'd probably start with that NHS pinky-brown on the Sup Matic...always reminds me of a waiting room in the 1960's for some reason.

K P Morritt Tru-Spin in 'Lady Penelope' pink......What WERE they thinking....
