I know the current trend is toward larger diameter large arbour reels, but to my eye a reel with a diameter of 3.4 inches just looks better than one of 3.75 inches on 8-9 ft 4-5wt single hand rods, especially those without fighting butts

The reinforced blanks are fitted with graphite and stainless steel reel seats and extra long full EVA grips for comfort
