Have you ever seen the price of a FIN-NOR reel? The Billy Pates' & Tibors' are more expensive!

The secret is to have been a fly fisherman for over 35 years & make some influential contacts! I own over 25 Abel's (some one of a kind collectibles). I've never paid retail, but it still hasn't been cheap!!! But I also have never had one fail on me either!!!
Also keep an occasional eye out on eBay for liquidation auctions!
