Julius Vom Hofe - Fly Reel - Size 3 1/2 8'1" The frame and sideplates areFor sale here is a good example of a Julius Vom Hofe Size 3 1 2 fly reel with somewhat rare spider washer. Reel is in good condition. The nickel silver plating on the brass shows some age and tarnish. I do not find any cracks in the rubber. The clicker is consistent but fairly strong. On off click switch works fine and the spool spins freely when in the off mode. The white specks in the photos are dust, not scratches.
