Modern Fly Reel by Orvis
(US 150,883)
View Patent
The Modern Fly Reel by Orvis was the first perforated fly fishing reel, paving the way for nearly all modern fly reels. Patented in 1874, this design is still widely used in the industry and provides enduring practicality. The design featured perforations for drying the reel of fly line to prevent decay and wear. I find sentimentality to this patent - it is evidence of the long history of humanity's innovation, and a landmark improvement for a hobby I dearly enjoy.
