Below you will find a series of links that will take you to bios and photos of many prominent Fly Fishing Reel manufacturers and retailers from days gone by.  Please click on the name of the reel maker to find out more about them and to see pictures of some of the different models of reels that they made.

This is by no means a complete list of fly reel makers, however, the reels made by the makers listed below tend to have more value.  Sometimes the name stamped on a reel is that of the retailer, I have listed those as well.
