Some crackers there and I do like those black Stantons especially with the drag adjustment as well. Will look even better when joined by the Lythe. Have you been tempted by the Witcher Ive added a picture of the Carter to show the lever check as opposed to the button. How do you find the Greys

Yeah TT I'm looking forward to the new Lythe, I've explained to the Wife that they will look much better when it moves in .

I've seen the Witcher but to be honest I prefer the Lythe and the Carter. I do prefer the lever check like on your Aerial Gem than the button on mine. I think the lever check is the most convenient/practicle style. The greys is super light and very smooth running the the strongest drag/ratchet of them all, only thing I don't like about it is it's a bit "bling" I prefer more subtle colours or if poss black.

Beautiful reels lads... craftsmanship at its finest. I checked out the Chris Lythe reels the other day... that young man loves his craft and it shows... nice to see a bit of "Olde English" engineering at work.

Not so much a collection, but certainly a beautiful pair.

I can't wait to get my hands on my AN pin again - the tamer of giant grayling! Andy, generous chap that he is, has even offered to clean all the sticky sweetcorn juice off it. (And now that's been made public he won't be allowed to 'forget' )

I do recognise the Stanton but I also recognise the other not so secret anymore pin Two CP's is ample Medway but you know how it is "eyes bigger than your belly n'all that". I'm gonna limit myself to only having another one or two more in future
