Orvis CFO 123 Fly Reel

Orvis CFO 123 Fly ReelAn excellent little Orvis CFO 123 fly reel set up for LHW. 2 7 8" diameter and 1" wide. 95% mint with a tiny amount of edgewear. 2 screw nickel silver line guard, and a 2 screw spool latch. A dark olive colored line is mounted on the reel. This package comes with a spare spool loaded with a S. A. Mastery series GPX WF 4F line. Both reel and spool are housed in Orvis individual pouches.

This has the black-anodized aluminum ferrules

This is the limited edition rod (limited to 15) that inspired the name of our company

A nice Wright & McGill Granger Victory

Wraps are brown with yellow edges and purple accents at the male ferrules

but nothing major

The owner's name is engraved on the back of the reel

The rod is straight and ferrule fits are good

It has a Powell-esque grip which starts quite slim above the reel seat and flares to a slight ball near the middle then dips again before flaring to a bulb at the front

Serial #6304 and feels perfect for #3/4 weight line

Another great read from an earlier era

The reel foot is 21/32" wide and 3" long (this width will not fit modern reel seats)
