Abel Rove Reel

$925.00$1,125.00

We didn’t think it was possible for Abel to make a real that was sweeter than the original Super Series. But they did it with the Rove Series. A silky smooth cork disc drag is featured in a reel you can confidently take anywhere in the world and know it won’t fail you. The full cage design adds durability and eliminates possible line catch between spool and frame. This reel is truly an heirloom that will get handed down to the next generation of anglers.

Description

From Abel:

ROVE: /rōv/ – travel constantly without a fixed destination; wander.

Built to fish anywhere and everywhere, the ROVE series of reels was created to give anglers the ultimate peace of mind on the water regardless of conditions or location.  The field-serviceable, proven Abel cork drag system along with the simplified design approach from our engineering team make this the reel that even guides in the Seychelles will trust in their arsenal.

This is not your delicate, ultralight, classically elegant reel for alpine meadow fishing.  We already have that model in our lineup. This is your ultra-tough, ultra-reliable, high capacity, beat-me-up adventure reel that will go where you want to go without feeling a need to have a backup reel in your limited carry on space.  Get out and wander the world with it!
