Bogdan Large Steelhead Fly Reel - LHW 13' not one we've seen beforeFor sale here is a Bogdan Large Steelhead Model fly reel. The reel is set up for left hand retrieve but can be switched to right hand retrieve for under $100. The reel is in near mint condition with only the slightest of marks on the reel foot from attaching to the hardware on a rod. The reel appears unused otherwise. Mechanically, the fixed click drag is still as strong as it was when it left Stan's bench. Large Steelhead Model specs: Frame diameter
