Dominate saltwater flats and powerful jungle rivers with the Abel SDS 7/8 Fly Reel in Custom Golden Dorado Finish. Winner of ICAST/IFTD awards, the SDS (Sealed Drag Saltwater) 7/8 combines raw stopping power, extreme durability, and silky-smooth engagement in a lightweight package designed for 7-weight and 8-weight rods.

Finished with Abel’s hand-anodized Golden Dorado graphic pattern, this reel offers high-end performance. Its stacked multi-disc carbon fiber and stainless steel drag system is 100% sealed from salt, sand, and debris—providing a massive drag range capable of fine-tuning for skittish bonefish on light leaders or locking down to turn hard-charging redfish, permit, and dorado.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Custom Golden Dorado Finish: Distinctive hand-anodized artwork delivers stunning aesthetic detail and durable corrosion resistance.

  • 100% Sealed Multi-Disc Drag: Stacked carbon fluorocarbon polymer and stainless steel drag system locks out saltwater, sand, and grit.

  • Aerospace-Grade Construction: Precision-machined frame, spool, drag knob, and foot crafted from 6061-T651 cold-finished aluminum.

  • Quick-Change Spool & Convertible Retrieve: Threaded spool release cap for fast swaps and user-convertible left- or right-hand retrieve.

  • Proudly Made in the USA: Designed, machined, and hand-assembled in Montrose, Colorado.
