Abel TR 2/3 Fly Reel

The return of a classic! The new Abel TR 2/3 fly reel stays true to the roots of the original, but with a striking modern design and feel. The partial porting of the frame draws from the Abel lineage, and it's unique features are as inventive as anything Abel has ever produced.  Featured here in the absolutely gorgeous, hand painted Native Brook Trout colorway.

Crafted by their expert machinists in Montrose, Colorado, the TR 2/3 is a lightweight masterpiece. An integrated precision-balanced clicker on the spool eliminates the need for a counter-weight, yielding a clean look and retaining an iconic click-pawl sound. The pronounced palming rim is deliberately shaped to manually control drag pressure in all fishing conditions. The TR also features a large-arbor spool engineered to reduce line memory and increase retrieval rate. Machined stainless steel accents on both the frame and the spool add that extra level of detail found only in an Abel reel.

• Only 21 meticulously machined parts ensure a lifetime of dependable use
• A time honored click-pawl system protects light tippet while preventing overrun
• Partially-ported frame for the perfect balance of weight, sound and aesthetics
• Milled silhouettes of a stonefly, caddis and mayfly inside the frame- image #5
