Sign In to see what this sold for

Only Known And Extraordinary Example Made By Jas Deally, Louisville, Ky" Marked Hand Made German Silver Trout Size Casting Reel. James Deally was first listed as a reel maker in the 1895 Louisville city directory. Research estimates the total number of reels produced by Deally to around 200. When factoring in the small amount of reels James Deally produced, it makes this tiny trout sized reel that much more desirable. The 2" dia., 1" wide spool reel has a 6 o'clock half handle that spins forever and you can just feel the quality when engaging the rear mounted click switch or the rear drag switch. With shouldered pillars and next to no sign of screw head abuse, this is a once in a lifetime chance to add a truly important one of a kind reel to your collection."
