FLY REELS

[Garic]

Hi guys, I am looking for some advice, I am looking for a very lightweight fly reel that will hold an 8 wieght line. I was interested in a loop graphite (3oz weight) but they seem to have discontinued them, any other ideas guys?

Yes. I have a light Scientific Anglers SA (single action) Model 58 that I really like.

FRAME & SPOOL:
# Durable, lightweight composite polymer graphite
# Perforated for lighter, easier handling
# Counter-balanced spool for vibration-free runs
# Inexpensive quick-change spools
DRAG:
# Simple, reliable double-pawl click drag - Concept? 1
# Heavy-duty compression disc drag - Concept? 2LA, 2
# Palming rim for added drag pressure
CONSTRUCTION:
# Durable, corrosion-resistant graphite composition
# "No Tools Needed" easy-change from right- to left-hand retrieve

Well, you get the idea. Link below.

I have the SA Concept2 Large Arbor 7/9. I have an 8wt line on it. Not a bad reel for the $. Doesn't hold as much backing as specified (20# dacron ) so if you want more, you might consider the thinner gelspun.
