Murray Stewart Model 300 Salmon Reel 9'3" The current owner relayed toA very nice Murray Stewart model 300 salmon reel, 3 3 4" diameter with an approximate 1 3 8" spool width. Set up for LHW. It weighs 13. 7 ounces on my scale. Mr. Stewart makes these bench made reels out of Glasgow Scotland and they are done in the classic S handle tradition with a Bogdan inspired drag system. Near mint condition with just a few small traces of rash on the rims, though it is minor indeed. The reel could not have been fished much. Clear
