For sale is one (1) Antique solid brass fly fishing reel made by J.B. Moscrop of Manchester England.
The reel was purchased during my travels to the United Kingdom in the early 80's and has been part of my fishing collection ever since. Historically known as the "Manchester" reel, the design was developed by J.B. Moscrop. This was one of the first fly reels to have a braking/drag system as part of it's design. The amount of pressure applied can be adjusted by rotating the square brass knob on the front face of the reel. This compresses a helical spring increasing pressure on the brake. This reel is the 3 inch model. Wonderful information about this reel/reel design and others can be found at the very informative "Whiteadders Fly Fishing Museum" website.
Please review all pictures and ask any questions prior to purchase. Shipping prices are only good in the continental USA. All others, please ask for a quote before purchase. Thank you for looking.
