Hey thanks Salmo. g

I was kind of wondering this myself, but thought better of posting it because I have NEVER caught a fish greater than 3 lbs. on a fly reel. In fact, even if I get good, I'll likely mostly be hooking into 5 - 8 lbs. silvers.

I'm interested in the responses to this post. It does seem like being able to palm the reel, rather than trying to fit your fingers onto the reel would be useful and less painful. NO?

Thanks,
jd
