This is a 4″ x ⅞” Scotton Trotter with the very impressive dead black finish and faux horn handles. It’s really very lovely indeed. Subtle, tasteful and perfectly executed in every way. This is an example of proper engineering with phenomenal attention to detail and sound design.
The spool weighs 109 grammes and the whole reel weighs 237 grammes. It will trot your float and cast your bottom bait with reliable efficiency for decades -centuries even.
The spool hub is phosphor-bronze, the spokes, line pins and handle spindles are nickel silver. The foot is brass. The spindle, check wheel, check pawl and check spring are steel.
The reel comes in its hand stitched English bridle leather clam shell case and a tailor made embroidered pouch with drawstring closure.
The original Chris Lythe owner’s manual is also supplied with this reel.
