Whether you’re hunting large brown trout in New Zealand or need a light tackle solution for Christmas Island bonefish, redfish or half pound steelies, the Abel Super 5N is the fly fishing reel for you. This newest member of the Abel Super Series is perfectly suited for 5 to 6 line weights and rods and was specially designed with a narrow spool for faster line retrieval and a slim profile. The Super 5N has everything you have come to expect from Abel; a smooth-as-silk large cork disc drag coupled with hard-as-nails anodizing for a lifetime of corrosion protection. At only 5.7 ounces, the Abel Super 5N is light for a draw bar drag design, yet rugged enough to withstand the rigors of backcountry use. So, as the Kiwis say “Put on your boots and shorts, mate, as we got trout to catch in the bush!” Abel Super 5N Specifications • Weight: 5.7 oz • Spool Diameter: 3.500 inches • Spool Width: .750 inches • Capacity: Line weight + Yards of Dacron; Backing: 5 + 125 20#, 6 + 100 20# To purchase this reel go to: www.flyfishingoutfitters.com

@dashwood123 you dont flyfish much do you.
Cork is the best for lightweight fly rods and even is stil good for larger fly weights.

Most of the time I would not pay that much for a reel. but from her….I might. Odd, most of the women in SF are fat beasts.

Why does a 5wt reel need 125 YARDS of 20lb backing, with a fly line thats 155 YARDS. And this is for catching what, small trout in a brook. You can not be serious. Do Abel know anything about fly fishing? They use cork for a disc drag, it doesnt it get any cheaper, and the clutch mechanism is as basic as it gets. The faster line retrieve relies on how fast can you can turn the handle which is the same on all basic fly reels.

I think it´s realy nice listening to her no matter what you guys say, flawless speaking about great reel. This is better then unpracticed male speaking with his ass about some fishing product

Wow! You guys are brutal. Who cares if she is reading from cue cards. Really!?!? Who cares! Shes HOT, the reel is excellent quality, and its nice to see a woman with some fishing chops rather than the tools you normally see on TV.

Just happened up on these guys. You tell they’re fly fishers not actors. Jennifer maybe reading from a que card, but she does a fine job of showing off the reel! I’m heading to SF/Wine Country in the fall for some R&R and will make Leland my first stop.

Are you people watching the same video I am? Enthusiastic she just reading a que card. I own the reel and they are top of the line. But lets get real about the delivery.
June 27th, 2010 at 3:22 am
The video is very well done. You can tell that Jennifer is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the product-she is not simply parroting marketing material. If I were a fly fisher it would certainly get ME to try this product!

Jennifer, you’re striking! Impressive!

Oh Man! It’s hard enough to resist high-end
gear when I’m at the local shop, but if they
had staff as cute as this I’d be broke…LOL!
