Vintage Martin MG-3 Fly Reel - Very Good Condition

Description

Vintage Martin MG-3 Fly Reel - Very Good Condition, hard to find
For sale is a Martin MG3 vintage fly fishing reel, made by Martin Reel Co. Inc. in Mohawk, NY in the 1970s. This is a single action reel with an always on click-pawl and adjustable drag. Many fisherman love this reel, and they say it screams like a cat in heat with a big fish on! This is a very lightweight reel, commonly referred to as a tuna can reel. It measures about 3" in diameter, and has lots of ventilation/cut-outs on the reel foot, spool, and body of the reel.
Mechanically, everything is in good working order.  The reel is set up for right hand retrieve.
Cosmetically, the reel does have some paint wear and cosmetic scratches but no dents.
These reels are very popular with fiberglass flyrodders, and are fairly hard to find. I'd recommend a 3-5 weight line for this reel, and if you buy it, fish it!
