Bling!
Like it or not you can't fault the workmanship!
A lovely job Evert.

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.

I will admit they turn out very attractively! Much nicer than the plain colour black.
Although I dont think I could do that to an Allcocks Aerial Popular ---- but??

After this everything is possible lol . i did this Merlin with a special reason, I have written a article in Fallon's Angler issue nr 7 which I am very proud off and will save that with this reel in a small cabinet just as a reminder

Well done Evert, it looks far too nice to fish with but that's just me. You are right to be proud of both the reel and the article.
God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.
