Medalist Refinish

[clyde holmes]

Time will tell, but so far Im happy with my refinish job on my old Medalists. Tried a trick I picked up in Michael Sinclairs book, which I just got on the Bay for 48.00. Im not interested in resale so it didnt bother me to strip and refinish it. Now if One Pfoot will just come back.

:I'm with Bill. I think if Pflueger had it to do all over again, they would use the motto "Use and Abuse" for their Medalist reels. The way the reel wears to s nice shine around the rim is indeed a badge of courage that atests to its use.
