I have this listed locally at a lower price and would absolutely prefer to sell via my local ad. I would also happily split these up and sell individually. If you don't love the price here, please find my local ad and give me a shout. If purchased on eBay, I will only ship in the USA.
Please message me if you'd like additional photos. Shoot me a message if you have any other questions.
If you are a shop owner or fellow Abel collector.... I am kind of hoping to work out some sort of trade for a Rove 4/6 or 5/7 in native brook trout or peacock bass graphic. Must have a matching drag knob and be new or in like new condition
