It was either the Mach VI, or the Vortex,, pretty sure it was the Mach that said Made in England. Beautiul reel, just like the VOrtex. I guess the Vortex is still pretty heavy, but look at the metal. Probably worth it with real big fish.

I think you should take seriously look att Danielsson reels LW or HD.
I heard that lots of people in USA are switching from Abel and Tibor for these babys.

Welcome to Danielsson

Nice looking reel. I checked out the website. But, I am now ready to go with the Teton line of reels. I have them in 9 to 12 wts. Need to start loading the spools with line!!

"...frankly i don't fish chinese."
Me either. That shiny CAD-machined junk is soul-less!

If you want to save some money, take a look at the US-made Fly Logic Premium series (890 model for 8/9/10 lines).

Great, no-BS design. Very solid but light; excellent disc drag. Available new on ebay for $60-70, and a spare spool for another $40.

Fly Logic Big Game Fishing Reel 8 9 10 Wt Flyreel Black - (eBay item 280144431597 end time Aug-24-07 22:11:16 PDT)
