Hi, does anyone have an Orvis Encounter II fly reel for sale? It comes as part of a kit and cannot be bought separately. I have several spare spools and would like another reel to complete my outfit. Any help appreciated. Thank you.

It used to be sold separately, I bought the IV version for mucking about in the salt. Its now used for streamer fishing.  Last one I saw for sale was through Uttings, but they are listing them as unavailable now.

There is one on ebay just now, although is seems expensive.

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the link. As you say, far too expensive!

I think the chap is taking the....well...you know.

They do come up on ebay, normally about £30 or so. I "think" the retail on them was £54. I got mine from Orvis in Banchory.
