Charlton Model 8500 .8 Fly Reel LHW

An excellent Charlton 8500 Signature Series 0.8 fly reel in LHW. Excellent used condition with some very minor rubbing in one area on the rims and some handling marks on the outer part of the knob and counterbalance. There is also a slight bit of cosmetic splotchiness to the finish from saltwater exposure, though rather minor. Serial number SS10382. The 0.8 spool can fit a WF8+150 30# or a WF10+160 20#. Meticulously coated with a high-polished, deep black Type III anodized finish with matte reliefs. Fully machined from high-grade aluminum and steel. Has a sealed, self-adjusting carbon fiber disk drag which includes over 9-square inches of surface area and boasts five oversized aerospace precision bearings. A large arbor design gives the angler over 1 foot of line retrieve per revolution. No bag.
