Did you manage to come home with one of those Chubb reels Mike, to go with your early Chubb rod?

The neatest Chubb fly reel I've ever seen.

Another one to add to my list of wants ...that will likely never be found. lol.

Jerry is a great guy ...and a freakin' encyclopedia of vintage fly tackle information.

I know that little Chubb reel got Dean's heart going. It did mine also. You never know what you'll see at a tackle show.

Great reels, have not seen them previously. The Weirton show continues to have great tackle.
