Snipe

---

 

 

The Snipe is a robust, sleek, workhorse reel that is designed and constructed around the architecture of the Kingfisher.  Giving John a head start with the beginning stages of manufacturing, the Snipe’s frame and drum are partially machined by a Computer Numerical Control machine.  Then, in their roughed-out form, the frame and drum are mounted in the lathe and given their final precise cuts and finish, which have made the Talisman and Kingfisher reels so distinctive.
