Farlow 3 1/2" Perfect fly reel - with wishbone check 5' A link to the patentFor sale here is a Perfect style reel made by Farlow's of London a 3 1 2 inch "Aluminum" model. It has the rarest and most attractive of check systems the wishbone, or spring check. These springs that provide the tension against a running fish are not the strongest I've encountered. Slight spool wobble and end play could probably use a re bushing but fishable as is. Holdfast logo and maker info stamped on winding plate. Serial number stamped on reel
