A scarce Bill Ballan Salmon Reel, 3 1/4" diameter and set up for LHW. This reel has a very wide spool, with the inside spool measuring 1 1/4" while the inside frame dimension measures almost 1 1 1/2". I am not sure that I have seen this model before. The internal brake system is an imitation of the Bogdan double brake design, and the back plate has a button that releases it from the frame, similar to that used by Joe Saraciones' classic American reels. S-handle style design with a silver frame and black anodized side plates and spool. The front plate has some porting to it. Reel weighs 10.7 oz with the backing and line fully loaded on it. In addition to the oil port cover, the release switch, and the drag adjuster, the back plate also has a small engraved design for the Jackson Hole one-fly tournament, for which this reel was presumably made. Good used condition with normal cosmetic wear throughout, but no major issues that I could find. Ebonite-style handle, and the counterbalance has Bill Ballan's name etched on it. No bag or pouch.
