Cotton Cordell Big O C76 Chrome/Black

Here is a brief rundown of each: Machined Reels Usually stronger reels that can withstand more "abuse" Usually lighter Can absorb/withstand more heat when fighting a fish Are typically more expensive Cast Reels Usually the least expensive option Strong enough to hold up in almost all situations Getting better (stronger and lighter) all the time For my first venture into the world of fly fishing, I wouldn't worry too much about how the reel is made

crank bait

Rod Option:703MHFB

The fins act as stabilizers when paused, allowing the bait to fall perfectly horizontal while the heavy salt content poured into the belly creates a subtle wiggling action on the fall, similar to a soft stickbait

this reel makes for easier fish fighting by allowing for quicker line retrieval
