Word of warning, I have a older Sage Click 3200,new Sage ClickII, Lamson Purist. While I love the reels IMO they only balance well on super light rods. They feel great on my TXL and sub 2.2oz rods but on my ZXL, Elkhorn,Zaxis rods they feel to light.I'm thinking this one or a sage click for my 3 wt. Winston.
You know used for a decent price it is worth a roll of the dice as you can always sell it if need be.I don't have the rod yet, its on its way, Winston Biix 8'6" 3wt., its listed at 2 9/16oz, Ive been looking at a Click on ebay with an Sage quiet double taper for a decent price, its due in 3 hrs. Maybe I should hold off, I have no way to test this reel on the rod, the closest dealer is 5hrs south of here. Thanks for the heads up!!
Wow great idea....I used to be a custom club fitter, can't believe I never thought of thatIf you pull the trigger and find the balance is off down the road, lead tape from the golfing industry can help that. Wrap enough on the spool then line it up.
Where do you get that from? That is way better and cheaper sounding than zonker lead or suspendots.lead tape from the golfing industry .

Do you know if the drag is one way or both incoming and outgoing, and is the spool on a bearing or a shaft. The closest shop that would carry something like this would be 5 or 6 hrs south of me.We have a demo here at the shop I work at and they are really nice. Not to mention as stated above it is made here in the USA and its less expensive then the Sage Click. I would just tell you to wait until your local shop has them and buy it there!
My advice, next week call Galvan Fly Reels...Do you know if the drag is one way or both incoming and outgoing, and is the spool on a bearing or a shaft. The closest shop that would carry something like this would be 5 or 6 hrs south of me.
The drag is both ways and has suprisingly more drag then I think you would ever need in many trout situations.Do you know if the drag is one way or both incoming and outgoing, and is the spool on a bearing or a shaft.
