Edward Vom Hofe Cascapedia Reel 2/0 LHW

Edward Vom Hofe Cascapedia Reel 2/0 LHWA superb Edward Vom Hofe Cascapedia fly reel in an extremely rare 2 0 size. It is 3 3 8" in diameter, with a 1 1 4" spool width (and 1 5 8" overall width). It weighs 6. 8 oz on my scale. This model is one of the rarest Edward Vom Hofe reels. Originally designed as the Salmon and Grilse reel, it was rechristened the Cascapedia in 1911, before being ultimately discontinued in 1920. This 2 0 size was only in the catalog for two brief windows, from 1911
