Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone on here as used these reels and can give some in sight on them, I'm on a budget and can't afford to much this year,

I'm looking to buy a new reel for my mullet and bass fishing and have come across some airflo reels called. The switch cassete and comes with 4 spare spools for £60 notes I was wondering as anyone used them and on a budget are they ok for saltwater use??? Thank you for any help that can be provided or alternative ideas in that price range,

The Switch reels are excellent reels for their price range, I don't believe these reels would be suitable for salt water fishing though.

You may struggle to find a salt water reel in this price range.

The Okuma Airframe copes well with anything the UK salt can chuck at it. I've had mine for the best part of 10 years now and still going strong.

These reels arent advertisied by me , but used the same model for years. They are superb and in my opinion ideal for what you want...

System 2 7/8M + 3 SPARE SPOOLS

The Okuma Airframe great reel for the price.
Cheers Ray.

Airframe or Scierra Avalanche which is the same reel can't fault them for up to 9 wt lines

Agreed ... If money's the object you can't really beat it.

anyone have any suggestion on a reel for my sharpes of aberdeen gordan 2 7 wt though i do overload my rod by 1 so a reel at 7-8

i may want a reel that can stand up with the like of bigger fish like salmon and dollaghan!

and does any one have any idea what the airflo airlite fly reels are like?

Vision gt,s excellent reel and good price can be picked up brand new for £100
