By TweedFoundation on November 20, 2020 in Articles

Limited Edition “International Year of the Salmon” Loop Classic Fishing Reel

To help raise funds for the Tweedstart Angling Development programme in the Scottish Borders, Loop Tackle Design have donated a limited edition ‘International Year of the Salmon’ Loop Classic fly fishing reel to be auctioned to the highest bidder. A true collector’s item the reel is number 002 off the production line (of only 200 made!). It is right hand wind and comes in size 7/9.

The reel will be sold via a blind auction starting on Monday 30th November and ending at midnight on Thursday 10th December.

During the time the auction is live bids can be emailed to Tweedstart via:

info@tweedfoundation.org.uk

Bids over £600 will be accepted with the winner being the highest bid when the auction closes. Please include “Tweedstart Auction” as the email subject.
Tweedstart will contact the winning bidder by email.

“As part of a Loop Aktiv initiative, Loop Tackle Design have engineered and designed a limited edition ‘International Year of the Salmon’ Loop Classic reel. Unique in design the reel displays both an inscribed outline of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean on each face. There are only 200 numbered limited edition reels available all in the 7/9 size range.
The LOOP Classic 7/9 is designed for both single handed rods in the #7 – #9 range along with switch rods and double handed rods up to #9.
Beneath the stunning looks of the Classic fly reel is the ultra-modern Power Matrix Drag System. This monstrous braking system will subdue the strongest of fish in the harshest of fishing conditions. The totally waterproof drag system benefits from a pronounced ‘click’ that audibly signals “fish on”. The Classic is completely corrosion resistant and benefits from a new ergonomic handle design with integrated leader retainer on the counterbalance. Available in specific left or right-hand wind, each reel is individually numbered and presented in a handcrafted leather case.”
