Charlton Signature Series 8500 1.2 Fly Reel 9'9" has a single goal: toA nice Charlton 8500 Signature Series 1. 2 fly reel, 3 3 4" diameter and set up for LHW. Near mint condition. There is one very tiny ding on the spool edge, and a tiny amount of scuffing on the frame edge in one spot, but the reel is exceptionally clean otherwise with no other signs of use. 1. 2" spool width and it weighs 11. 2 ounces on my scale. Designed to hold a WF10 and 275 yards of backing. Characteristic type III glossy black anodized
