Hi Frank,

The Marryat Plus does not have a multiplier. Multipliers use gears which
would make the reel heavier and a little bit more unreliable.

However the spool has a fairly large arbor and the handle is offset towards
the center for quick wrist retrieval. If you combine the two you get a very
high retrieval rate, keeping the reel light and reliable.

This reel has been on the market for over a year now and many famous
fishermen have tested it already such as Marc Petitjean and Nick Pujic. You
can have a look at some nice pictures at:

If you have serious interest in testing the reel, I would be glad to send
you one. Usually what I expect in return is a field report which you could
post in this newsgroup and a nice photo of a BIG fish you caught. Angler
Sport Group (www.anglersportgroup.com) is our distributor in the USA and can
arrange the demo for you. Please contact Rick at: 585-757-9958.

Or if you are feeling lucky, you can go to Fly Anglers Online
(www.flyanglersonline.com) and win the free drawing of the month: The
Marryat Plus.

Okay, I'll "bite." At the end of the month, I will be moving to an
area of the US more known for carp than trout. When I lived there
last, I looked for, but could not find, an affordable quality
anti-reverse, multiplier fly reel. Carp are notorious for huge runs
right at you and then a quick turn to the side, hence the desire for
the above mentioned real.
Questions: Does this reel come in a multiplier form? If you fight a
fish from the reel, the multiplier format would be to your advantage.
Anti-reverse and multiplier would seem to be the optimal marriage.
How does the anti-reverse set up work with fine tippets? I am familiar
with anti-reverse reels in a baitcaster format. When using an
anti-reverse baitcaster I would normally put on a higher breaking
strength line. With this "graduated" anti-reverse, is there a setting
that would ensure you do not put on so much pressure that your would
break your tippet? If its just "feel" then I could imagine a lot of
break offs due to the extra adrenaline imparted by a big fish.
Thanks in advance. Would like to give this system a test run on some
of the big carp in Omaha.
Frank Reid
