    I have a Dannielsen Midge that I use on the streams, as well as a couple of small sage click's. I still have a couple of Abels, a super 3N for yellows, and a Super 5N for tigers, although this reel might be up for sale soon . For trout stillwaters, my all time favourite reels are the older narrow arbour Abel creek, click and pawl reels. I quite like the old Stealth "ultra light " reels also, which are my standby reels.
    S an assortment of US, Chinese, and Scandinavian manufactured reels.

    Right now, if I had to replace my fresh water reels, I would probably go for the Danielsons (Cost not being a factor)

    Cost being no factor i'd like some Harts, or a Ramish reel made custom for me. A Kaneko as well, oh, and a Willow!!!!
