Sir,

You might want to check ebay....check out a used Abel super 11.... (made in USA with cork drag). perfect size for 9/10 wts, I have 3 super 11s and love them.

Bill has the deal. That's a fantastic reel at a great price. I had a ABEL #3 BG till a dorado stole it in Loreto several years back. Lost a nice SAGE RPLx too that was attached to it :(

I'm pretty sure the frame on the BG #3 will interchange with the newer Abel Super #8. Perfect size on a light saltwater rod.

Abel is one of the highest quality fly reels made, period.

It is at Kiene's American Fly Fishing Company in Sacramento right now....

Put "Abel Big Game 3" in Google Images.....these have small round holes on the outside of the spool.

Dang, I just bought the Ross Reel. And now I thinking about the Abel Big Game 3. That's a good price. I might have to move out of the house once the wife see's more toys being delivered to the door. I'll need to empty out another drawer for more reels.
