Product Description

Remember the slogan for the old Packard auto? Ask the Man Who Owns One. We can say the same about our Super Series in a more PC manner. Ask the Fly-Fisher Who Owns One. Super Models are heading into their fourth year- long enough to be on the winning end of a lot of fish stories. Abel Large Arbor Super Series Reels have spools that are 100% interchangeable with spools of comparable size standard Abel Big Game Reels. As an example, with a Super 8 frame and Big Game #3 spare spool, you have created two distinctly different reels with different capacities and capabilities. The Super 8 holds an 8-weight line with 200 yards of 20# backing, the perfect weapon for bonefish, school stripers and reds; while the interchangeable #3 spool will hold a 12-weight plus 250 yards of backing for tarpon and sailfish. No other reels have the ability to interchange spools and frame and no other has the Abel drag system that gives you the ability to Stop-A-Sub. All Super Series reels are ported using a "rounded oblong" design that maintains total strength and rigidity in the metal while , at the same time, looking like something out of NASA. They're lighter, yet retain all of Abel's traditional strength and integrity.
