Julius Vom Hofe - Size 4 Platewind Fly Reel 8'9" There is no front cork

There is no front cork check

The only thing that makes this rod a "P" is the water mark on the wrap flat between the stripping guide and the first guide (see very bottom photo on the left)

Julius Vom Hofe - Size 4 Platewind Fly Reel 8'9" There is no front corkFor sale here is a scarce size 4 Julius Vom Hofe Platewind fly reel. 2 1 8" diameter and 15 16" wide spool. Fixed click check is nice and strong and favors left hand retrieve. The hard rubber rims have some chips but the reel feels very solid nonetheless. Mechanically this reel operates very nicely and would look great on a small stream bamboo rod!
