Got a sweet Harnell 804 today. It has been well-used (as it should be) but it's still in great shape. The guides, handle grips, and reel seat are all really nice. I had a Penn 706 needing a home so now I have a killer surf combo!

Tight Lines,

Wow, talk about a classic combination.  That's beautiful.  PUM and the whole nine yards.  They both hold their value well so I'm sure it wasn't cheap.

That's a beauty, those poodle grips are super clean,hard to find them like that.
Do what you can with that you have where you are

The previous owner of that 804 must have kept it in a silk rod sock.  I've bought new rods with more scratches from dealers.
