Seamaster Tarpon Reel

Seamaster Tarpon ReelA Seamaster Tarpon fly reel, 4" diameter and set up for RHW. 1" spool width and it weighs 14. 2 ounces on my scale with the backing loaded on it. Fair used condition with cosmetic wear throughout, and some moderate rim rash concentrated in the resting place. One corner of one end of the foot has also been bent (presumably from a drop) though I think it should mount under a reel seat. Gold frame and winding plate, with a black spool and drag adjuster.

The Orvis tube fits the rod perfectly but has a data sticker from another rod as it does not match

The spool and frame are gold anodized
