⭕ Edward vom Hofe, size 2 Perfection trout fly reel. This little jewel, quite usable on a four-weight bamboo rod, carries the Jan. 23, 83 patent on the rear grease cap, and all of the metal parts are made from nickel silver -- not aluminum. It has a
nice knurled on/off click button that works as it should, and the five point adjustable drag is still very strong. There are no cracks, scratches or dings anywhere on this 2 ¾ x 7/8 single action reel. The foot on this model 360 trout model is full-length, and nothing here has been replaced or repaired. It has been many moons since I have seen a nicer example of this sought after reel.
