Here we have a Forrest's patent adjustable drag reel. A beautiful piece of engineering. This drag reminds me of the later Farlow's Grenaby drag (silent version) The reel is in excellent condition, has a full length foot with the desired hole to centre - dished drum- this is the equivalent to a Hardy brass faced perfect.
Brass faced and has an ivorine handle with beautiful machine bezelled brass tension adjusting centre screw, a very rare reel!
