A modern reinterpretation of the original Abel TR series, built around what trout fishing actually requires: a \u003cstrong\u003etime-honored click-and-pawl drag system\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003epalming rim\u003c\/strong\u003e for the angler's hand to do the work, and the kind of fit and finish that turns a small-stream reel into a piece of art. Made by Abel's machinists in \u003cstrong\u003eMontrose, Colorado\u003c\/strong\u003e, the same town as our shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis configuration is the \u003cstrong\u003ePorted Deep Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e frame paired with a hand-finished \u003cstrong\u003eebony wood handle\u003c\/strong\u003e. The partial porting in the frame is the visual signature of the TR series and a nod to the Abel lineage. Inside the frame, Abel mills the silhouettes of a \u003cstrong\u003estonefly, a caddis, and a mayfly\u003c\/strong\u003e — a detail you only see when you take the spool off, and the kind of thing that explains why this reel costs what it costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe TR runs on the \u003cstrong\u003etime-honored click-pawl system\u003c\/strong\u003e, the same mechanical drag that has protected light tippet on trout reels for a hundred years. There is no sealed disc, no carbon fluoropolymer, no startup inertia to manage. Just an internally adjustable pawl made from \u003cstrong\u003e303 heat-treated stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and an iconic click sound that announces every yard of line a fish takes. The \u003cstrong\u003epalming rim\u003c\/strong\u003e is shaped to let you manually control drag with your hand, exactly the way trout reels were designed to be fished before the industry decided we needed more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e2\/3 size\u003c\/strong\u003e is built for \u003cstrong\u003e2-weight and 3-weight rods\u003c\/strong\u003e: small streams, bamboo, fiberglass, the slow technical work that bigger rods cannot do well. Weight is \u003cstrong\u003e4.19 ounces\u003c\/strong\u003e, spool diameter \u003cstrong\u003e3.06 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e, capacity \u003cstrong\u003e65 yards of 20-pound backing with a 2-weight line or 50 yards with a 3-weight\u003c\/strong\u003e. Built from \u003cstrong\u003eonly 21 meticulously machined parts\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003equick-change spool and threaded release cap\u003c\/strong\u003e, the TR will outlast its owner. Comes with a \u003cstrong\u003erugged cordura reel case\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eDesigned and machined by trout junkies in Montrose, Colorado, USA.\u003c\/strong\u003e Stop by 432 E Main
