The wacky Italian broad wants the info to buy me a Christmas present, not sure whyJ I wouldn't mind a large arbor, but don't know that I need one since I rarely have a fish on the spool, so the drag is also somewhat moot. I'd like 150 yds on the spool w/ 7wt line. I fish right handed, retrieve w/ the left & I'd like spare spool capability. I spend more on the rod than on the reel, & my reels are typically fairly basic & can take a beating. This is an opportunity for me to upgrade w/out her spending too much. Plus, I don't need her to know how much stuff actually costs, so if she spends $250 +/- $50, she'll know why I value the equipment w/out knowing how much I actually spend.
