My first good fly reel was a 1494 size model of the Pflueger Medalist fly reel that I bought with money
from my paper route when I was a teenager in the 1960s.

I used and sold and worked on these cool old fly reels for most of my life.

I wrote this article to just talk about these old reels that were the most popular fly reel of their day.
