Abel SDS 7/8 Fly Reel – Solid Satin Blue III Slammin’
Abel SDS 7/8 Fly Reel – Solid Satin Blue III Slammin’
Winner of the best new saltwater reel at the 2016 ICAST/IFTD show, the Abel SDS (Sealed Drag Salt) takes all the power, reliability, and smoothness of its smaller counterpart and combines them in a larger package capable of taking on saltwater gamefish of all sizes. A unique multi-disc drag system yields an industry-leading 20+ pounds of braking power and is completely sealed from the elements. Crafted for chaos and available in 3 sizes, this makes the SDS perfect for fighting big bones on light tippet as well as providing the power needed to halt hard-fighting tarpon in their tracks.
Proudly Made in the USA, this reel features and innovative first of its kind finish from Artist Casey Underwood. These Reels are Individually laser engraved and put through a proprietary polishing/texturizing process. Though complicated, the process requires less time than our hand- anodized graphic finishes.
