Peerless Model 2A Fly Reel 8'5" No cracks in the reelFor sale here is a Peerless 2A fly reel. Designed for a 5 or 6 weight line. 3 1 4" diameter. The reel weighs 5. 3 oz. The reel's line capacity is a DT6 plus 40 yards of backing. The prior owner had the handle mechanism attached incorrectly and thus there are rub marks from it making contact with the anodized faceplate. The reel has been made right now mechanically and therefore these marks are simply a cosmetic afterthought.
