This is a chance to own a very old Pflueger Medalist fly reel that is good for a #6 or #7 line fly rod.

It was probably made around WWII and has a steel right hand crank disc drag.

The spool is put together with 6 rivets rather than 3 as on the later models.

These older ones have very fine spool to frame tolerances too.

This has some wear on the finish from decades of fishing but is in very good smooth condition.

I still use one of these for single handed steelhead because it reminds of my youth.....
