For your consideration is this Vintage Pflueger Medalist 1492 Fly Reel.
This Reel was found at an Estate Sale and looks to be in nicecondition for its age. Since I know nextto nothing about these things I will try to describe it as best as I can,please feel free to contact me with any questions.
It looks to be quite old as it features a Stainless Steel Ring Line Guidethat is quite smooth with no Grooves in it, and its Spool Cap is made of Metalnot plastic as some of the others I have seen being sold. The Pillars that go around the Frame are Sculpted,and it has an Amber colored Knob (possibly Bakelite?) to crank it with. The Finish is a Shiny Metal, it has a kind ofspotting to its outside finish, may have once been painted(see photos).It Cranks smoothly and has a nice sounding click to it both forwards andbackwards.
It is marked Pflueger Medalist Diamolite Line Guard Trade Mark Madein USA Patent Pending. The Foot is screwedin rather than being riveted so I guess that it could be replaced if needed, the footmeasures approximately 2 3/8” long xabout a ½” wide.
