Heavy reel needed
Hi all.
I was wondering if anyone hear could suggest a reel on the heavy side,(8-9oz), that is not real big or unreasonably priced. I have been searching for a while now, and all I seem to keep coming up with are knock offs that are extremely cheap, in price and quality alike. I have a six weight, fifty some year old South Bend that a good friend of mine, Curt Elder, recently refurbished for me. It is a beautiful rod and fishes very well, but I think it would be much more pleasurable if it were better balanced on the back end.
Any suggestions are welcome, as I am running into dead ends all over the place.
