New old stock and no longer in production, the Vom Hoffe Reproduction click-pawl fly reel is a faithful tribute to one of America's most iconic tackle makers. Available in three sizes, it's the natural companion to any classic bamboo rod.

Two summers ago, I purchased the remaining inventory and assets of The Angler’s Roost. Looking back, I underestimated the scale of the undertaking and just how much inventory, organization, and work would be involved in properly continuing the brand.

A lot of customers have understandably wondered why there haven’t been more products added to the website yet. The truth is that only a small percentage of the inventory, probably around 10%, is currently listed online.

The inventory itself is massive, and because of its size, I’ve had to utilize multiple storage locations. That said, the products are being kept safely in clean, temperature-controlled spaces to ensure they remain properly preserved while I continue organizing and cataloging inventory.

For a while, I intentionally kept the amount of listed inventory relatively limited because I wanted to make sure that when customers placed orders, products could still be located, packed, and shipped out quickly and reliably. Even with a smaller amount of inventory online, the support from the fly fishing community has been great. But this summer, I’m making it a major focus to finally get more of the inventory organized, photographed, and available for purchase on the website.

One thing that has genuinely stood out to me has been the overwhelming support from customers who loved this brand and respected Johnny Khuehn. It has become very clear how much The Angler’s Roost meant to people over the years. Johnny built something special, and I truly feel a responsibility to do my best to get these products into the hands of the people who appreciate them.
