The 7/9 Rove is the flats-and-inshore workhorse of the line - a Basic Black reel with an ebony handle sized for bonefish, permit, redfish, and light salmon or steelhead work. Tough, blacked out, and built to travel without a backup in your bag.
Rove is Abel's go-anywhere adventure reel. A field-serviceable cork drag and a caged, reinforced frame give you confidence on distant water, while the high-capacity large-arbor spool handles the backing you want when a bonefish heads for the horizon.
