Snake Brand Fly Reel Seats

Just thought I would post a little feedback here.... I am a new builder, was looking for a top quality reel seat for a current build. I ended up choosing Snake Brand guides, and went with one of their Buckeye Burl, uplocking reel seats. The quality is fantastic. The metal work is beautiful, really nice. The Buckeye Burl is a really great piece ( I am a professional woodworker and finisher) The finish of the wood insert is the nicest I have seen on a fly reel seat. It is great.


Snake Brand Reel seats are very nice!


Cheers all...

Agree, Snake Brand products are top shelf. Yes, Joel Lemke does make the hardware for Mike, Joel used to work for Struble. Plenty of Pro and Hobby builders use his stuff. Ron Weber at Southwest Custom Rods also sells Lemke hardware, slightly different style from the Snake Brand product.
