There are so many brands of fly reels available in the market. But how do you choose the best one? Well, if you ask me, I use the tried and tested brand, just like Galvan. It manufactures sturdy reels that suit large game fishing, and recently, I tested its
Torque Reel.
The name of Galvan's new reel reminds me of
Bugatti Veyron car. In actuality, Torque really speeds up fishing. How? Torque's round spool, rims, knob, and frame are designed to aid fly fishing method. Since in such activity we usually 'drag' our catch, Torque's design helps us by providing smooth drag scheme that requires less effort, thus allows more space for 'dragging' the catch than 'dragging' the reel.
If you still find this confusing, then I suggest that you just try Torque. It's made of thermoplastic that endures wear and tear and heat combined with sturdy steel. These components alone make Torque a very durable one. I tested it on saltwater fishing, and I didn't worry about it acquiring rust.
The whole set's (reel and spool) cost range from $377 to $653. Surely, Torque is a big ticket, but wait until you catch big game, too. Each set's absolutely interchangeable and suits either right-handed or southpaw anglers. Lastly, you can choose either black or bronze Torque.
