A superb little "Baby Hermann" fly reel by the late Dr. Paul Hermann. 2 5/8" diameter with a spool width of 7/8". Neutral wind that could be fished either LHW or RHW. Near mint condition with just a small trace of cosmetic rubbing to the frame edges in a few places, but no major scratches anywhere and the sideplates are pristine. Very nice condition overall. This is the epitome of a bench made reel, with Dr. Hermann making only 112 of these Baby Hermanns during his career. This one is number "019" which is stamped into the underside of the foot crossbar. Black anodized sideplates with silver frame and spool, and a classic s-handle. Fixed click drag. The reel weighs 5.75 ounces and is designed to hold a #4 line with backing. Comes in a red fleece drawstring pouch. A very nice chance to own a fine benchmade trout reel, these Hermanns are getting harder and harder to find these days.
