    Default 3wt cheap fly reel

    I'm looking for a descent but cheap 3wt fly reel. If you're thinking about selling one send me a line and we might do business.
    Thanks

    Thumbs up

    Martin, with a 3 wt all your doing is storing a line, you really don't need a drag etc, I put a 1492 1/2 medalist on my daughters 4 wt and it is a great little reel for the price, unfortunately its right hand only. if you need a left hand model I can suggest a Ross flystart, my son uses one on his two weight and loves it.

    Orvis Clearwater 2...under $50. I have several and they work just fine.

    I like reels a little larger, this is metal and not plastic.
