I have always wanted a click and pawl reel. I like old school gear. When Aussie Angler had their “Rick is away Orvis sale” I couldn’t help myself. The reel was ready for pickup the next day. When I went in John swapped my fly line onto the new reel and put one of my old lines on my old reel. The crew at Aussie Angler are the terrific, giving sound advice on all aspects of FlyFishing, which, if you include Jo’s casting tips, covers everything from the fly on the tippet to the arm holding the rod. I couldn’t recommend Aussie Angler highly enough. They are just around the corner for me, but well worth a trip out for anyone in Melbourne.
