I know its been said before but ordering reels from Sweden is "reely" fast. My L5W 6nine reel was shipped from the factory on Monday morning (11/20) and arrived in Springfield Oregon before dinner tonight (11/22). Shipping cost $22 with DHL. Holy crap that is fast. Reel is beautiful.
Selling these three to fund the purchase of a couple Danielsson reels for my upcoming saltwater trip. All function properly with minimal wear. Lines not included. No pouches.

I've ordered some 60 lbs. Momoi Diamond Braid hollow core line to load on a 9wt and 11wt reel. Diameter of the braid is .014 in. Will create a double blind splice to form the loop. My question: should I be worried this about the braid cutting into the factory loops on the lines? Thanks.
Lucky to find myself going to Kauai for my 50th birthday in December. One week just north of Lihue and one week with friends in Hanalei Bay. Spent time on the island prior to becoming a fly fisherman so I'm excited to make this my first saltwater trip. Planning to fish 5-7 days total.

Hey,
I recently acquired an unfished Powell Tiboron 7wt saltwater rod for the quiver (thanks Mark!). Wondering if if anyone has a J. Ryall 7-8wt saltwater reel that's collecting dust on the back shelf. Thinking it would be cool to combine these two quality California companies for my first...
Hey,
Looking to fill a spot in the quiver. Don't want to spend a ton of money since it won't get that much use. Something like a Echo 3 Salt, Prime, Sage FLi, etc. What do you have collecting dust in the back of the closet?

Who's using a light clicker on your euro rod? What model? Recommendations...
