TT opinion: Here we have another good used Hardy Marquis alloy fly fishing reel. The Salmon No 1 is a narrow drum with a large line capacity. 3 3/4″″ diameter, 36mm across the frame, counter-balance spool & internal metal check. Can be fished left or right-hand wind with Hardy zip padded case. Its in good original condition with some marks to rims. Still one of the best traditional Alnwick built fly reel.
