Tibor Riptide Fly Reel

Tibor Riptide Fly ReelA nice Tibor Riptide reel by Ted Juracsik. LHW. Mint, unused condition. 4" diameter, 1" spool width. Weighs 9. 6 oz. Capacity for a WF10 & 200 yards of backing. Silver finish with a heavily ported spool to reduce weight. The nameplate on the back is blank though I believe Tibor can make you a customized one should you desire. Comes packed in a green neoprene pouch and the original box with papers.

The rod has a terrific balance of finesse to backbone making it a versatile four-weight

The rod features moderately tempered cane with chestnut wraps and gold tipping

which matches the similarly bright uplocking screw lock seat with a hidden pocket cap

As far as I have been able to determine this may be the only small Montana model that T&T produced
