William Olson early "Springer Special" fly reel

William Olson early "Springer Special" fly reelFor sale here is an early reel made by William Olson. This one was dubbed the "Springer Special" back in the early 2000s. He only made approximately 10 of these and only 2 or 3 in left hand retrieve. The reel is a multiplier and is in like new, with a diameter or 3 1 2" and a spool width of 1 1 4". The reel comes with a fine leather Arne Mason pouch. If you are interested in ordering a different Olson reel, you can find details here. I also have a 4 1
