Hi, I'm Tom Rosenbauer, and I'm here with my friend Battenkill Large Arbor Real.

I consider this real my friend because we've been a lot of places together.

We've been in small Vermont, Brook Trout Streams, we've been in small Vermont brook trout streams we've been in big

rivers in Montana for bigger trout where they actually pull some line off

you reel that's a big boy. Had it in salt water, catching strippers in bluefish,

bonito, false albicore, and some big bonefish.

And it's always performed beautifully for me.

All right! Oh, hi! out of it.

it. It's a really reliable reel. It's a really reliable reel. It's got a center line disc drag inside which is a much

more efficient system right down the center instead of out on the edge. It's got roller

bearings inside here so it's stainless steel against carbon. It's a very lightweight

frame. The spool is obviously really easy to take off and switch to an extra

spool. The nice thing about the drag system is that it's indexed on the back.

So if you get a drag setting that you're comfortable with,

you know about where you are because you've got these numbers

and detents in there for reference.

So it's a very positive sure way of adjusting a drag.

A lot of benefits to fishing this large arbor reel.

One is that since this arbor is bigger,

your line when it comes off the spool isn't all kinked.

Because the line is wound around a bigger diameter.

That's not the most important thing.
