In 1896, legendary angler Edward vom Hofe introduced the 'Perfection Fly Reel.' Widely considered by sportsmen and collectors to be the finest reel ever produced, vom Hofe combined hand selected ebonite and nickel silver with an 'Adjustable Automatic Tension' drag system to create the gold standard that has lured collectors and anglers for over a century.
Joe Janciuras, founder of Janciuras Reels, offers a masterful collection of modern reels built in the tradition of Edward vom Hofe. Every element of each Janciuras Reel is handcrafted following vom Hofe's original designs utilizing the finest materials. Available in trout and salmon configurations, we welcome you to experience the contemporary versions of these classic reel designs.
