I'm looking for a large arbour (sp?) fly real somewhere from 7-9 weight 8 being ideal.

If anybody has something laying around let me know.

I have an Amundson Trend 7/8 wt fly reel w/spare spool, lightly used. It is milled from aerospace billet aluminum and stainless, and has an excellent drag. It is a great reel for both salt and freshwater. it is considered a very good value at a price of $240, plus tax ,at Wholesale Sports (reel and spool) I will sell at $150,
or $170 with 170 yds of 30# Tufline XP backing on each, as I want to buy a spey outfit.

I don't have one to sell you, but look into the Snowbee XSD reel. It comes with five cassettes, and is a good price. It is great if you are going to use more than one line.

The Amundson is a great reel.I own one on my 6wt Spey and works like a charm.Very nice drag and sweet price with a extra spool....buy it.

Vision also makes a cassette reel. $180ish with 3 cassettes and a case.
Its called the Vision Koma. I picked one up for my switch rod and I'm very happy so far.

Got it from Nile Creek Flyshop. He has the Snowbees there too.
Good choice for swapping between lines.
