Looking for Pflueger Quadruple reels

Robin Sayler · Post by **Robin Sayler** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 4:40 pm

I am trying to find some more variations of reels marked with pflueger and quadruple. Also if you have any reels marked simply quadruple I would also like to see them.

Please email me with pictures if you have any you think I may like. I have tons of traders or cash.

Here are a couple. First is marked as shown, black on brass finish.

This one is a trade reel, no Pflueger marking

Others to follow as I dig them out of the shed & garage...

I've got one for you, metal band with raised hard rubber plates. Pictured in the 1904 catalog. It'll take me some time to dig it out...

I understand this is a old request, but I found its not easy to find much info on these reels. Here is a photo of one that came into my possession though my grandfather.

Looks like a Montague, nifty oil cap on tail side.

Thanks for the Montague identification, I was also trying to figure out who made this reel, when I found this post. I was originally thinking it was Pflueger after I saw the earlier posts, but haven't been able to find much other information.

That is a unique oil cap. I have a lot of Montagues and seen more but never that oil cap. Could it be an add-on? Or perhaps something entirely different that is just screwed on?

It does screw on and off, here is a better photo.

Could it be a valve stem cap?

I guess it could be. I just ran out to my car, and grabbed one off my tire, it also fits.

So approximately what year could this reel be? I took it outside the other day, and was surprised to find that it actually casts pretty well. It's noisy, but works.

I think it's a bicycle tire valve. I've seen three or four reels--all different makers--with these on them.

Hey, you gotta use what you can!

Hard to pin down an exact year but I would guess it was made in the mid to late 1920's.
