Here is a link to the Allen reel http://allenflyfishing.myshopify.com/products/alpha-reel The reel I got to play with was the 7/8 and it was flawless, really smooth drag and you could really crank it down tight.

    WOW!!!! What a beauty and the price is not bad at all, thanks guys. It's not that I don't love my Okuma Magnitude but it has (imo) a design flaw which is the drag star, the gap between the reel and the star is a bit too much so the line tends to get caught up in there.
    Thanks.
