| Pflueger reels |
Question:
What's up with Pflueger fly fishing reels? I know some very distinguished casters who use them. I don't get all the screws that hold them together. Is this a cost savings, or am I missing something? Yet holding one, they seem sturdy and well manufactured. I'm thinking specifically of the 1400 series, which has been around for a thousand years. Does anyone use them? If so, what are the advantages for the 3-figure reels?
Answer:
The screws hold the reel together.
Many of the more expensive reels are machined from aluminum and they are lighter and maybe a bit smoother and just about as durable. Many of the more expensive reels have a better-than-Pflueger drag if that's what you need.
