Default A "Kosmic" with Edward Payne's influence??

[QUOTE=Austin W Hogan;10859]Those two reels bring back fond memories. Here are some flies by Harold Gibbs; despite my obvious bias, I consider Gibbs the best of the twentieth century.

Best, Austin[/- My first choice in fly reels was always the Hardy Perfects-ball bearing smooth, palming drag if needed, well machined and finished. Not familiar with Mr. Gibbs- but his flies are well tied and in perfect proportion to the hook size and style. Austin, I'm surprised you didn't include the Darbee-Dette Catskill tiers- another great tier was the late Harold Steele Gillum of Ridgefield CT.--I never owned a Gillum or a Garrison rod, but then, I have never owned a Boss side by or a Woodward either-
