Description
Discover the magic of blue lining with the new Abel TR Blue Line Edition – where adventure meets tranquility.
Blue lining is all about escaping the crowds and exploring sections of unpressured rivers, hidden streams, and less-traveled natural beauty. Blue lining offers a unique and intimate connection with nature, allowing you to fish in serene, often overlooked locations teeming with fish.
Through the Blue Line Project, Abel, Airflo, OnWater, and Trout Unlimited seek to inspire anglers to spread out and seek the thin blue lines on the map. Chasing the blue lines enhances conservation efforts by reducing pressure on popular stretches of water and encourages adventure and solitude. Your purchase supports Trout Unlimited through a giveback from Abel Reels and Airflo.
Embrace the journey off the beaten path responsibly and uncover the true essence of fly fishing. Go blue line – where every cast is an adventure, and every catch is a story worth telling.
The return of a classic. The new Abel TR stays true to the roots of the original, but with a striking modern design and feel. The partial porting of the frame draws from the Abel lineage, and its unique features are as inventive as anything Abel has ever produced.
Crafted by our expert machinists in Montrose, Colorado, the TR is a lightweight masterpiece. An integrated precision-balanced clicker on the spool eliminates the need for a counterweight, yielding a clean look and retaining an iconic click-pawl sound. The pronounced palming rim is deliberately shaped to manually control drag pressure in all fishing conditions. The TR also features a large-arbor spool engineered to reduce line memory and increase retrieval rate. Machined stainless steel accents on both the frame and spool add that extra level of detail found only in an Abel reel.
