Abel Fly Fishing Reels
The guts of all Abel reels are their unique "Stop-a-Sub" drag system. Most fish are lost at either the strike or the net. Abel's drag system has virtually no hesitation or stutter; so more fish are hooked and landed. It's as smooth as silk for a very good reason... to improve your chances of landing the fish of a lifetime.

Abel Quick Change Series
Years of testing and engineering have produced the Super Series Quick Change (QC) reel. Simply back off the drag knob, push in and rotate the center cap for quickest spool release in the industry.

Abel Surefire Light
The "marriage" of Abel and SureFire was natural: both companies are noted for precision machine work and uncompromising quality. Founded in 1979 - about the same time as Abel - their ever-expanding family of high intensity handheld lights has made SureFire synonymous with the best illumination tools the world has to offer.

Abel Spey Fly Reels
To meet the demands of steelhead, salmon and other big water anglers using Spey techniques, we’ve come up with the definitive tool: the Abel Spey Reel. It has been engineered, machined and anodized meticulously as you would expect, but also created with a specific design and capacity aimed at long-rod anglers.

Abel Super Series Fly Reels
Large Arbor Models are heading into their fifth year - long enough to be on the winning end of a lot of big fish stories. The Expanded Large Arbor Super 7 is making its debut. Abel Large Arbor Super Series Reels have spools that are 100% interchangeable with spools of comparable-size standard Abel Big Game Reels. We call that InterchangeABELity. Example: with a Super 8 frame and Big Game #3 spare spool, you have created two distinctly different reels with different capacities and capabilities. The Super 8 holds an 8-weight line with 200 yards of 20# backing, the perfect weapon for bonefish, school stripers and reds; while the interchangeable #3 spool will hold a 12-weight line plus 250 yards of 30# backing for tarpon and sailfish. Nothing else can compare. No other reels have the ability to interchange spools and frame and no other has the Abel drag system that gives you the ability to Stop-a-Sub. All Super Series reels are ported using a "rounded oblong" design that maintains total strength and rigidity in the metal. They're light, yet retain all of Abel's traditional strength and integrity.

Abel Limited Edition Fly Reels
The Limited Edition Abel Reels in designs inspired by artists including James Prosek, Tim Borski and others with benefit to various environmental groups and causes. These incredible reels sell out quickly so act fast to support the cause and to buy a unique and exquisite collector piece!

Abel Creek Series Fly Reels
Whether fitted to your antique cane or 2003 Abel graphite, these beauties will look right at home. What's an Abel Creek? It's a modern large arbor trout reel with traditional values including an adjustable click drag. The narrow frame coupled with large arbor spool means fast line pick-up, fast retrieve and a classic, elegant look. Available individually or as a set.

Abel Anti Reverse Fly Reels
What's an Anti/Reverse Reel? The handle doesn't turn when line goes out . . . thus no lost fish when a whirling handle meets your knuckles. Great for surgeons, pianists, violinists, jewelers or others who need to protect their fingers and hands. Abel A/Rs are lightweight, utilize a unique ball bearing design, and have fewer moving parts than our competitors. Each A/R reel comes with its own finger wrench for removing the spool.

Abel TR Series Fly Reels
  • Originally designed in 1992, reintroduced in 2008.
  • Internally adjustable pawl click drag made from 303 heat treated stainless steel is locked in place by two small hex cam nuts and a spring retainer.
  • To adjust the incoming or outgoing tension, simply rotate the fully enclosed hex nuts with your fingertip.
  • Standard arbor design.
  • Classic round ventilation holes.
  • All reels available with a solid frame.
  • Made in the USA.


Abel Reel Accessories
Abel offers 6061 aluminum reel handles that are 1/8th inch longer than the standard wooden handles with a knurled finger grip. They are fitted with a hand-pressed Delrin insert for the absolutely smoothest feel this side of vanilla ice cream. And just as luscious. Their weight precisely matches the weight of the counterbalance. They won’t chip, fracture, splinter or snap no matter the temperature or conditions. They are, in a word, forever.
