Check out Galvan. I am considering a Rush for my 5wt, but you cannot go wrong with ANY of their products! Enjoy!

Re: Reel Opinions...

I'll go outside the box of your choices as well. I recently purchased a Galvan Open Back and it is really well made and I can see it lasting for a long time. Bought it from a local shop where I was able to touch/feel it along with some of the reels that you have mentioned. I liked the Open Back better than the Torque mainly because it was quieter.
