J.W Young & Sons 4" Salmon Reel

A fine vintage J.W. Young & Sons 4-inch salmon/fly fishing reel, manufactured in Redditch, England. A substantial, traditional reel well suited to salmon, steelhead and other larger fly-fishing applications. The reel features the classic J.W. Young construction and styling, with a robust alloy body and traditional click-check mechanism. These reels are well regarded for their solid construction and smooth operation and are also increasingly collected as examples of traditional British fishing tackle.
