I like my tioga magnums. I am really hard on my equipment and they take a beating. Dunk em all you want, get em full of sand it don't matter as long as you rinse when you get home. The drag is all you will ever need for stripers, don't think it would hold up on sbft though, but then I have never tried. Best of all is the price, and the warranry can not be beat. I returned one this winter that was litterally smashed and they replaced it no questions asked. For 500.00, the price of one 12 wt reel from other companies, I was able to get two reels and three spare spools. You get alot of reel for little coin, can't be beat imo.

Fly reels Ross BG Canyon. All sizes. Great reel for the price. Light enough and tough enough to handle big fish.

I use my Valentine more than any other. It's not a true anti reverse but works well on my 11 wt.
Anyone know anything about Phlueger Medalist Big Water reels?
Anti reverse and stainless.

Can't wait to try out my Binaford 6005!
