Some exceptional items, including a in Hardy 4.75in Alma, two sets of Stan Bogdan anniversary reels, an Otto Pleissner original watercolour and A Keelling Musky Minnow are on offer at Lang’s next online sale, which takes place on May 18 and 19. Those two boxed Bogdan salmon reel sets are among more than 30 Bogdan rels for sale.  There are also three Edward vom Hofe Restigouches, a selection of modern Hardy fly reels and an Ari T Hart Remco. Rods include examples by Gary Howells, Lyle Dickerson, Leonard and Pinky Gillum. The top-selling item is likely to be the Pleissner watercolour entitled Camp Harmony. It carries a stupidly low estimate of $5000-$7000.  Best of more than 500 lures are a Hosmer Mechanical Froggie and a five-hook Keeling Musky Minnow. You can view the catalogue here, though beware of the estimates, which are in many cases, ridiculously low. Trust me: you won’t pick up a Fin-Nor wedding cake fly reel for $400! I suppose this means that at least, Lang’s can claim everything sold above estimate…
