South Bend 1144 reel + South Bend 359-9' rod = 10 bluegills

Post by dusty-ole-flyreels »

yesterday, I attached a South Bend 1144 reel to my dad's old South Bend model 359-9' bamboo 3pc. rod- and caught 10 bluegills in the nearby pond

the flies I used, were vintage 1940's Grampus flies that I got with a Grampus rod in a wooden box at a local yard sale, last week

now that was cool !
