Julius Vom Hofe - Raised Pillar Fly Reel - Size 2 Gary Howells The action is a bitFor sale here is a nice example of a Julius Vom Hofe raised pillar trout fly reel with spider washer. Size 2. Reel mechanics are in excellent condition, as are the nickel silver rims. No cracks in the hard rubber. The clicker works well. On off click switch works fine and the spool spins freely in the off mode. The reel foot is slightly kinked but fits in reel seats that I tried.
