Powell reel seat/

Had a customer request an "E.C.Powell" reel seat on a fly rod. He said it is the finest fly seat ever made. Not sure about that but he is certain that it is what he wants. He will not consider a Struble or Bellinger and says they are junk compared to the Powell. Where can I get one if they are even made anymore? I have never seen one. Thanks.

It was a fine seat. Landmark once made a very good copy and in 2 sizes. Something else you might check if Powell no longer offers it to the public.
