I'm looking for a well built and most importantly lightweight graphite fly reel to take 7/8 line. Looking for something which isn't too expensive, but not too cheap that it will fall apart. Can anyone recommend any I should be looking at? Thank you

Danica(2 models) or Grays.

I have a 5/6 size Grey's GLA. It comes in a 7/8 size. Excellent reel for the money. Well made, nice comfy handle and a superb drag system. I would highly recommend one.

Can't go wrong for 20 quid: http://www.atkinsangling.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=9 free postage too.

I think the important word here is Graphite though the Diawa is lightweight.

Okuma Airframe /Sierra Avalanche ( same reel different labelling). Excellent reel, tough as old boots and with a very good drag system. Costs £29 and if you buy the Sierra version from Gary Evans you will get a spare spool thrown in as well.
