For sale here is a D.L. Robichaud #5 Traditional Trout fly reel with removable back cover. This spool removal method is very easy and a very nice feature with these reels. In the once crowded field of classic S-handle styled reels being made, I have to admit that these Robichauds are my absolute favorite choice, given their cost to quality ratio. Near mint condition with a few ever so slight handling marks in the anodized back plate if held up to bright light. Right hand retrieve only. Traditional fixed click/pawl. Made to hold a 5wt line plus backing. 3" diameter. Frame width is 1.33". Inner spool width of 0.70" Weighs 4 1/2 oz. Comes with its original reel pouch with Robichaud's stamped impression as well as the reel instructions.
