Now that I am retired and have more opportunity to fish, I was going through all my fly tackle and want to get some more fly reels to fish with. I have a lifetime supply of different rods due to buying a lot used over the years. But I need more reels/spools for various line sizes. In particular, I need a 3-4 reel/spools, perhaps a new 8-9 reel and a number 1 reel or spool.
Here is what I have:
System 2 with various spools for 6-7
System 8 with spools for 8
Orvis Access with 5 spool
Seems like the world is moving to large arbor reels, any recommendations in the mid-range? Not interested in the top end stuff for fishing. I like the mid-arbor Access reel the best, any reasons to change that on the smaller line sizes? What about for the 8-9?
If you have any advice or perhaps reels for sale, let me know!
