A very nice William Olson Gear and Pawl fly reel, 4" diameter and set up for RHW. Black anodized throughout with a clear anodized foot and S-shaped crank handle. Two handsome medallions are inset into the front plate with the first noting the original owner's name, model (4" G&P), and serial number (No. 275) while the second bears William's maker stamp. The reel weighs 12.6 ounces on my scale. It is in mint, unused condition. Ebonite-style handle. Pre-set gear and pawl drag which has one of the loudest clicks of any gear and pawl reel I've ever seen (your friends will know when you are into a fish on this reel!). The reels comes with the original leather Arne Mason drawstring bag with Olson's maker mark stamped into it. Mr. Olson has built a well-deserved reputation as one of our best contemporary bench reelmakers, and, as fans know, the waitlist is substantial. Here is your chance to skip it and enjoy this reel on your next salmon or steelhead trip.
