Pezon et Michel - Charles Ritz’ personal tournament reel 3 Weight yet simple dual sliding bandCharles Ritz personal tournament reel. This 3 super smooth running checkless reel is adapted from a modified Pezon et Michel Silentreel with perforated spool, cutaway backplate and reverse tapered handle. The handwritten label on the ribbed foot is believed to be in Ritz own hand ~ it says "Petite Rivire 100grs", which refers to an Accuracy event casting, i. e floating target, with a 100grams heavy rod.
