Peerless 2A Fly Reel

Peerless 2A Fly ReelA nice little Peerless 2A fly reel, 3 1 2" diameter and set up for LHW. Near mint condition, with just a few minor traces of light use. Clear anodized frame with black anodized sideplates. The maker and model name have been etched into the backplate which also features the drag adjuster. It weighs 6. 6 ounces on my scale. This model is designed for #5 or #6 weight lines. It packs into the original leather zip pouch with the Peerless logo embossed on

the Pheasant Hopper
