Abel SDF 5/6 Reel Underwood Ridge Riders Dark Olive/Black Handle

Winner of the best new freshwater reelfor2018byFly Fisherman MagazineandBest of Showat the 2017 ICAST/IFTDindustry trade show,the SDF comes on the heels ofAbel’s move to Colorado: the trout-based surroundings inspired us to take it up a notch.

Based on the SDS (Sealed Drag Salt), the SDF (Sealed Drag Fresh) is a scaled-down version of the award-winning saltwater titan featuring similar porting and a stainless steel / carbon fluoropolymer drag system. The SDF boasts an enormous amount of drag, an adjustment range almost three times greater than its predecessor, and virtually zero start up inertia.
