The Rove is Abel's rugged travel reel, and the Abstract Rainbow finish gives this one serious flair - a hand-painted, rainbow-trout-inspired treatment done in Abel's shop, so every reel is unique. It comes with a matching Abstract Rainbow drag knob and an ebony handle, all on a 4/6 built to take a beating and keep going.
Rove means to wander, and this reel is made for it. A field-serviceable cork drag and a caged, reinforced frame let you trust it far from home without a backup in the bag. Machined in Colorado, it holds plenty of backing and balances single- or two-handed rods.
