White version

The completely white version of The Terrible Muddler

Pike.

This Scierra XDP reel has been used extensively in the salt for several years and has shown no signs of rust. Other of my Scierra reels (Traxion reels in particular) have broken completely down due to rust, and I only occasionally use one smaller Traxion model now, and exclusively for freshwater fishing.

Martin, as you wrote in the past Scierra Traxion reel had a serious problem with the rust.
If I am right, the reel on your picture is Scierra XDP. What about this reel and the rust? Is it better? Thanks a lot

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
