I have been fishing with the Albright Tempest reels for a while now. After my experience in Mexico with a larger tarpon I am convinced, that for the money, these reels are the best in their class. At the moment you can get a really good deal from Ray Hutchenson at
http://www.sealevelflyfish.com/ for a reel that will handle about anything you want to catch. I'm not associated with him, nor do I receive any compensation from him. Give these reels a look if you are in the market for a top quality reel, which he backs 100%, at a cost that doesn't break the bank.
