Good Looks and Solid Performance at a Great Price
4 von 4 finden das hilfreich The click-and-pawl Battenkill has been in the Orvis lineup for years and years. My first one was an English made reel that I saved for and finally brought myself to purchase back in the 1980's. I paid $80-something for it at the time, a 7/8 disc model. Here we are now in 2017, and I just purchased a set of these black nickle beauties, paying $90-something for each of them. Not much of a price increase over 30 years, eh? Hats off to Orvis, who knows how to market to the frugal fisherman - quality, looks, and reliability at a rock-bottom price.
I still fish my 7/8, which has proven itself to be tough, tough, tough; and over the years I've built up quite a collection of both older and younger Battenkills. None, though, look as sleek and polished, in a traditionally trouty way, as these nickle-silver beauties. They will compliment a light-line cane or fiberglass rod perfectly, but still do not look out of place on 9-foot modern rods of heavier calibers. They're winners!
Pros - looks, feel, precision machining, large line capacity, and a sexy click-and-pawl purr when turned.
Cons - no knob for drag adjustment, and little drag range when the spool is removed and the drag setting is changed.
Click reels, however, never do offer much range in the drag, and we who fish them count on our skill palming the reel or fingering the line to control the fish. Its part of the fun of fishing the clickers!
Note that my review covers only the click-and-pawl reels in the series, and not the larger disc drag versions with which I have no experience.
