Julius Vom Hofe - Raised Pillar Fly Reel - Size 2 10'6" the fit is very nice

the fit is very nice

and the action is very authoritative medium fast to fast

which uses my "payne-style acorn cap" (normally used with a screw-lock seat) with a standard sliding ring which is seated over nickel silver rails inset into the spacer

Though the grip is described as a cigar grip I would call it a hybrid cigar/western grip

Set up for LHW and user convertible to RHW if desired

Julius Vom Hofe - Raised Pillar Fly Reel - Size 2 10'6" the fit is very niceFor sale here is a nice example of a Julius Vom Hofe raised pillar trout fly reel with spider washer. Size 2. Reel mechanics are in excellent condition, as are the nickel silver rims. No cracks in the hard rubber. The clicker works well. On off click switch works fine and the spool spins freely in the off mode. The reel foot is slightly kinked but fits in reel seats that I tried.
