Abel Anti Reverse Fly Reel
What's an Abel Anti Reverse Fly Reel? The handle doesn't turn when line goes out . . . thus no lost fish when a whirling handle meets your knuckles. Abel Anti Reverse Fly Reels are lightweight, utilize a unique ball bearing design, and have fewer moving parts than Their competitors. Each Abel Anti Reverse Fly Reel comes with its own finger wrench for removing the spool.
Line and backing capacities are the same as Big Game models in the same size reel.
The Truth About Drag
There are manufacturers of highly advertised reels who continue to use Delrin and other plastics for their drags despite the obvious inferiority. Those can't be compressed, so the drag plate deflects (bends). Pure cork compresses up to 50%. You've seen a Champagne cork when it comes out of the bottle and still pops back to its original form. Pure cork has that compression that is inherent in its own material. We use a superior high-grade cork and put a little pure neat's-foot oil on it. Our drags do not wear. And we have 16-year old reels to prove it.
