Just picked up my 7.5ft 6wt Heddon Pal Mk3 All spiffed up and ready for the water in 2021
Serious cork rehab along with a custom tapered winding check , new stripper guide and some touch ups on few wraps.
Splurged and hooked up a new Tica Fishmaster S107R reel in silver and a gold that’s a nice match to the Heddon’s gold reel seat and balances perfect to the rod.
Much props To Tom @ Toms custom rods in Belair Md for the great work as always.

Outstanding! The reel and reel seat really compliment the whole color scheme.

That’s a nice looking combo!
Would you mind adding an internal shot of the reel to the thread? I hadn’t heard of that one before but it sure compliments the rod.

Here are some pics of the Tica S107R\S
It is has a smooth disc drag with a sweet sounding line payout clicker
it weighs 5oz without line also this is a standard arbor spool so you can load it up with backing if need be to gain a lil more swing weight
I love the cool porting and the laser etched fishmaster script that goes around the reel
Seems to be very quality

the Heddon looks great..

knew Tica made good spinning reels, hadn't seen their fly reel before. Interesting, thank you.
