Sold. JW Young Beaudex 3 and 1/2 inch MW fly reel. The drum is 7/8" across. Weighs 6.5 ounces. Handles 6-8 weight lines. An excellent quality reel which Young made from 1945 to 1969. I suspect this reel was made in the late 60's because it has a satin grey finish which wasn't introduced until 1965. Made from alloy castings machined with fine tolerances. Line guard protects cage from grooving by the line. Adjustable drag. Dual checks allow the reel to be operated as left or right hand wind. Delightful loud click Contoured non-slip reel handle. Quick release latch on line drum. Perforated line drum aids ventilation of line. Black finish. Reel shows normal wear and tear. Finish is a little worn on face of one spool. $50 in person cash or PayPal. Free shipping CONUS.
