The Satin Blue III Vaya is a head-turner - a soft satin-blue anodizing set off by a Basic Black drag knob and a matching blue aluminum handle. In a 5/6, it lands on the trout reel size most anglers use day in and day out, with a finish that stands apart on the water.
Vaya is Abel's modern trout reel, designed and machined in Colorado. It is a partially-ported, large-arbor reel with a sealed carbon-and-stainless drag - light on the rod, smooth under load, and finely adjustable for the light tippet a five- or six-weight sees.
