Abel SDS 7/8- Bonefish/Platinum

DESCRIPTION

Abel SDF Series Fly Reel

Coming soon...

The Abel SD debuted in 2013 and quickly set the bar for what a sealed drag fly reel could be, both in fit and finish as well as reliability. Following the move to Colorado, our new trout-based surroundings inspired us to take it up a notch.

Based on the SDS (Sealed Drag Salt), the SDF (Sealed Drag Fresh) is a scaled-down version of the award-winning saltwater titan featuring similar porting and a stainless steel / carbon fluoropolymer drag system. The SDF boasts an enormous amount of drag, an adjustment range almost three times greater than its predecessor, and virtually zero start up inertia.

We took what was learned from our SDS design, made sure to include the unmistakable Abel fit and finish, and created the best freshwater reel we have ever seen.
