Abel offers a unique lineup of reels perfectly suited for our Portland-Metro waters, from trout, bass, to steelhead and salmon. Each model of Abel is ergonomically designed for a specific approach of fishing with the added option for fully customizable reels, whether you prefer ported or solid from housings, and different anodizes and finishes.

They are one of the few reel companies that also offers different drag systems depending on personal preference. Traditional cork drags have withstood the test of time and still offer one of the smoothest drag systems available on the reel market. Few reel manufacturers are still producing quality cork drags, and Abel has one of the best. Other varieties of Abel reels incorporate fully sealed drags that prevent corrosion or oxidation that may negatively affect how your drag performs over its lifespan.

Abel has long been a trusted reel company for us here at Royal Treatment and we are always happy to discuss the differences in look and performance with you. Give us a call or swing by the shop to find the perfect Abel reel for your next rod and reel setup, or for your existing rods!
