My good friend and mentor Rikk Taylor always fished sallmon with his Hardy Longstone. Whenever i think of him I can see that beat up old gray HL , him palming THE SPOOL, and the looong rod bent in a sweet curve. It's is a classic.


Damn, now I think I must have one. Do you have any idea what one iN fair shape might fetch?
