I am not really a reel man, so I think I might just go back to my Lochmore, any one want to by an Explorer 000, it has serious street credentials and has only been used on the Karnemelk(sp), Upper Bok, Upper Bell and Willow Streams???

It will take up to a 2W line, I think you should load it with line and then have a look.

I realise that you guys are looking for ultralight reels for ultralight rods, but some of these reels look like space shuttle instrumentation, not classical line storers to be used in the ancient art of flyfishing in a trout stream. The space age designs are more suited to salt water fishing. Of course I am talking about personal preference here, and we all have different requirements of our reels.

For small stream trout fishing a reel must:
1) Hold a flyline and a small amount of backing
2) Have a fairly smooth drag and avoid overwinds
3) Look good in a subtle kind of way
4) Make me feel good about it
5) Not be too heavy
.......Possibly in that order.

I much prefer the more traditional looking reels:

As I say, it's all personal preference. And the traditional look just feels right to me. Just my Z$ 1,000,000,000
