    Does tfo have smaller reels ? 2/3 wt ? and what price are they generally ?
    Have a look at the No.I reel, it's for a 2/3wt.

    I paid R800-ish for my MK-I.

    yis deewy, thats a nice reel. going by the quality of their rods, I'm sure that it will handle a decent fish and have a stunning drag. Glad the people paid out. Now...."where not to leave the FF equipment" book is going on special at the moment

The Shilton was way out my price range unfortunatly otherwise I would have bought it. I saw TFO 4-5wt reels I'm sure they do lighter m0dels as well, my reel was R1900 and I got a lekker discount. I'm not to sure what the other ones go for
    The day I bought the TFO375, two Shilton reels had just been returned to the shop with faulty drag systems. The TFO was retailing for the same price. I've been using the reel for 3 years with no problems. I'm very happy with the choice I made. (Luckily I had 2 experts to advise me at the time.)
    So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish.
