Seller: davetherockguy ✉️ (1,177) 100%, Location: Rochester, New York, US, Ships to: US, Item: 334879267745 Scarce Julius Vom Hofe Raised Pillar "New Saltwater" Fly and Trolling Reel. Circa-1910 "New Saltwater Reel," with a unique design that includes externally riveted ears for raised pillars (patented in 1903) and a tailplate lever adjustable spring drag. The reel was marketed primarily as a fly reel for tuna, tarpon, and striped bass. It was also advertised as being a good wire line trolling reel for muskies and lake trout. This design was not well received by the public, and for this reason, these reels are scarce. The nickel-plated brass reel is 3.875" in diameter with a 1.675" wide spool. It is stamped at twelve o'clock on the faceplate. G+ due to about 40% plating loss (primarily on the faceplate). Tough reel to find.
