| Super 5N Abel Reel |
It came this morning as I was finishing up a painting of a West-slope Cutthroat. Taking the box from the FedEx delivery man, I tore into it like a kid on Christmas morning. First chance I get I am going to take this beauty along with my Fall River Bamboo rod and give it one heck of a test on the waters of my native Chattooga River.
For those of you that are in the market for a new fly reel or just like seeing this beauty in action, keep your eye out for my next post using this Abel Reel. Just to wet your appetite a bit more I will also be adding a 'special' giveaway to accompany the next post. Before you ask - No its not my new Abel Reel. That baby is all mine but as a thank you to all of you that have supported me and my fly fishing art I will be giving away an original painting for one of you to hang on your wall. Details will soon be coming your way soon. I might even add a few other prizes in there as well so keep a look out.

You could giveaway that MFC reel that was paired with the Fall River Rod that I guess you won't be needing anymore.
That;s gonna look stellar on the bamboo!
I have heard great things about the Abels Reels. Should have some quality action on the bamboo stick.
That is an awesome looking reel. I hope it works as good as it looks.
Jay - You wish. honestly that reel was just to big for the bamboo but i have other plans for that.
Brookfield - It does!
Trail Outdoors - Honestly it is the best reel I own and just spooling the new line on it has got me excited to fish it.
Mark - It looks more red in the picture then it actually is. Its more of a bronze/red and it looks great next to my bamboo. cant wait to fish it!!
I agree, that reel is way too big for the bamboo. That's why I used my old L.L. Bean GQS with it the whole time I had it. I was only kidding about you giving the MFC away. I definitely want to see what you pair it up with when you do.
Like your work, Joel, Abel reels are first class!
