Julius Vom Hofe - Fly Reel - Size 3 7'9" One would expect "Carmel" nextFor sale here is a good example of a Julius Vom Hofe Size 3 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 not as tight as some I've encountered. On off click switch works fine and the spool spins freely in the off mode.
