cool thanks for the input guys
I seen few Fin-nor Fly reels on ebay i have handled one that belongs to a friend but did not get a chance to fish it because it has never seen water(calls it his precious), how ever it feels like a very well made reel but yet they can get pricey even used reels, since they are discontinued by Fin-nor.
the reel has to match my 8wt Fenwick HMG 9' fly rod bought it 2 weeks ago so i thought a very well made fly reel would be nice fit to go with it.
And to be honest i don't like paying $150+ for a reel made in either China , Malaysia or Korea. i prefer either made in USA , Sweden , or Japan even if means coughing up few extra dollars.
once again thanks for all the replies
tight lines.
