Fred, the above post, "That's what I'm talking about"! You also have to check the individual dealers to see what they have! In addition, check out Cabelas web site and their "bargain cave". Then scroll down to "fly fishing", and you will be pleasantly surprised, not only on THEIR products, but on "Brand Names", too! Lots of times, you can pick up a spare spool for a name brand reel there, or good lines, etc., at bargain prices.
I like the Cabela's large arbors. Here in the Northeast, they have a free mag. that comes out in Jan or Feb that compares the domestic reels, and Cabelas reels always come out very well for a low-inertia drag, which, as you know, is ever important when a chrome beauty suddenly realizes he's hooked!
They're not on "Closeout bargain basement prices" every day, just take your time, check often and choose wisely! Hell, you already KNOW that as a retired banker!
