The Rove is Abel's tough travel reel, and the Abstract Brown finish gives this one real personality - a hand-painted, brown-trout-inspired treatment done in-house, so no two are exactly alike. Matched with an Abstract Brown drag knob and an ebony handle, this 4/6 is as much a conversation piece as a workhorse.
Rove means to wander, and this reel is built for it. A field-serviceable cork drag and a caged, reinforced frame let you trust it far from home without packing a spare. Machined in Colorado, it swallows plenty of backing and balances single- or two-handed rods.
