Hi js,

That Sage 'combo' reel is probably a good value for the dollar (under
$100USD?) but if you have a little more budget you might look at the Teton
'Tioga' standard #6 reel for $129USD. It is fully machined fom barstock 6061
alloy, anodized, has all SS parts and very solid.

om...

i'm new to fly fishing and was looking to put together a rod and reel.
for temple fork's four-piece 9-foot, 6-wt rod, i was looking at the
sage 1201 combo reel. anyone have any experience with this reel? or if
someone has a better recommendation for a reel that can handle both
bass and trout, i'm all ears.

thanks much in advance,
js
