The apex of saltwater performance, machined right here in Montrose. The Abel SDX delivers the largest arbor and fastest line pickup Abel has ever engineered, paired with the sealed multi-disk drag system that has made Abel the standard for anglers chasing the biggest, baddest fish in the ocean. The ported caged frame, alternating carbon and stainless drag, and new larger handle make this one of the most capable saltwater reels Abel has ever produced — and it carries the striking Baja Fade frame finish with teal drag knob and black handle.
Built for 12 and 14 weight rods, the SDX 12/14 is purpose-designed for the moments when everything runs. From stalking permit and tarpon on tropical flats to swinging flies for steelhead on big water, the alternating carbon and stainless multi-disk drag delivers maximum stopping power with the kind of fine adjustability serious anglers need, while the massive backing capacity is tuned for tackling tuna, makos, marlin, and sailfish in true bluewater conditions.
Every Abel SDX is hand machined by Abel's master machinists in Montrose, Colorado, the same machinists who build every Abel reel in the lineup. When you buy an Abel from Ed's Fly Shop, you are buying a reel made by our neighbors right here in our hometown.
