Sadly the answer is "one that you can't get anymore." It's actually one of my father's old designs that were distributed by McKenzie "back in the day." My father still has a small number of them lurking in his gear closet, and the line shown here has been well-cared-for over the years (no parking-lot casting!). It remains one of my favorites, with a "pebbled" finish that shoots like crazy along with that unobtrusive olive color. Just got an email asking about the brand of the olive-colored line on the reel.
