{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Fly Reel Fixer-Uper Help

Thanks for the insight Mark! I had thought the one looked closely as Medalist and will contact Pfluegar. The "HI" stands for Horracks-Ibbotson who was mostly known as a maker of lower/entry level bamboo fly rods (my Dad's got one I had refurbished a few years ago); so maybe Pfluegar had them made and branded them as lower level reels. Has a nice click sound but sticks a little.

That HI 1875 looks a lot like an older Pflueger Medalist. It might even have been made by Pflueger for HI. You might check http://www.pfluegerfishing.com/ to see if they have the corresponding manual or schematic (or one that's "close enough")  Also see: http://www.flyfishohio.com/Anglers_Guide_to_Pflueger_Medalist.htm and http://www.flyfishohio.com/Guide_to_Pflueger_Medalist_Part_2.htm 

As for the PEMCO, there's this: http://bit.ly/29ke40p

I received the attached fly reels from my Grandfather over the holiday weekend and was thinking of having them checked out but wasn't sure where to go.
