JW Young 3 1/2" red agate fly reel Gary Howells Sparse then rushed back to3 1 2 dia Youngs for Allcocks, with faint stag logo. An interesting reel someone has painted sprayed enamelled the reel (personally Id give her a dip in paint stripper and fish happy with the result). Brass foot is 2 long and original, slightly battered but should fit most reel seats, diminutive erinoid handle, minimal spindle play. Thick dark red agate with no cracks or chips. Spool contains untested silk line. This reel ships from our UK office. REF
