Fin-Nor Wedding Cake #2 Fly Reel with Spare Spool Gary Howells The reel seat is handmadeA very nice Fin Nor Wedding Cake #2 fly reel with a spare spool, 3 1 2" diameter and set up for RHW. I don't think the reel has ever been fished, and the spare spool is in near mint condition showing just a tiny bit of scuffing on the inside suggesting that it may have had a line on it at some point. Serial #872. Gold anodizing with the famous stacked wedding cake design. The original owner's name is engraved on a plate attached to the backplate,
