Leonard, H.L. - "Volstro" Raised Pillar Fly Reel 6'4" bronze spindleFor sale here is a reel not seen very often. From what I can gather from my research, it was made by Dave Atwood (Volstro) for HL Leonard back in the 1980's. He is said to have built about 200 of these reels but Leonard never took delivery of the reels because they filed for bankruptcy.
