Van Staal ..??

[amazinmoose]

has anybody heard of them!? is their gear any good??  thx in advanced -moose    tight lines

[billditrite]

they are absolutely top quality and well worth the arm and the leg they get for them!! LOL really they are absolutle winches that are tough as nails!!



i belive they make fly fishing reels too but this is what i want

[onthefly(TB)]

they have a completely sealed drag system,they are light ,and can take the salt like no other.they have a black anodized version a little cheaper than the one pictured ,but that is a beuty,the cut outs are weight reducers as well as allowing water to flow out east.if you ever waded while fishing you know jumping the waves is guarantee ,this reel cant get dunked and perform flawlessly. if you are serious and want a reel for life.BUY IT !,i wish i could afford one for evry stick i own!
