VFT1771


For sale here is a Dingley 3" Perfect Style Fly Reel made for gunmaker and tackle dealer Westley Richards of Birmingham. Stamped D2 and 2 throughout.

Very slight line marks on the pillar. No cracks/chips or prior repairs. The spool screw is a new replacement by Bill Archuleta. The original screw with stripped threads will come with the sale. The reel weighs 7 oz. and the reel foot is 2.6 inches long.
