Hey Paul -
Thanks for posting the pics..........and WOW seeing a 1/0 Vom Hofe, a 1/0 A.L. Walker, and a 1/0 Zwarg, in the same reel case is best described by a phrase that Ken has used in the past...... That is One Heck of a Hat Trick  !!

Paul -
I smiled when I saw the EVH again and remembered its storied "past"...... Say, what diameter are those 1/0 reels? I thought the 1/0s were 3 1/8 inch, but compared to one of your salmon reels off to the right which I know is a hair under 3 1/4 inches, they look smaller than I had recalled.......and certainly smaller than 3 1/8th?
