Like any work of art, Abel Reels are hand painted master pieces and can vary ever so slightly from one beautiful reel to another.
Also, please take into consideration that colors can vary from mobile phones, computer monitors and cameras when viewing a custom fish graphic picture on our website.
At Fin & Fire, we try to represent the truest rendering of these reel colors and use reel graphics take directly from Abel Reel’s website.

If you purchase backing, at the time of the reel [11/12 Size only] purchase, we will create a “Bimini Knot” to connect the backing to the fly line.
If you prefer a different knot you must include those specific details in the checkout note section. Please be aware this may delay the shipment of the reel.

• The Black, Platinum and Fish Graphic Reels come with Black Aluminum Handles and Matching Drag Knobs. 
• The Tarpon Fish Graphic reel comes with a Platinum Aluminum Handle and matching drag knob.
