Ted Godfrey Custom Trout Reel 2 3/4"

Ted Godfrey Custom Trout Reel 2 3/4"A nice Ted Godfrey custom trout reel, approximately 2 3 4" in diameter and set up for LHW. Near mint condition with just a few tiny traces of wear on the frame edges. The reel weighs 4. 9 ounces on my scale. S handle design with black sideplates (I suspect they are delrin) and a clear anodized aluminum frame. Solid spool design. This reel has an adjustable drag which is engaged via the lever on the backplate, an unusual feature in a reel of this size.

When it recently arrived at the shop I instantly remembered having seen Tom fishing with it in and around Music Mountain
