My new Okuma Fly Reel

Seeing I'm not the type to run out and buy anything on the spur of a moment.And was thinking of changing from my first reel after I broke my other reel,when I had that run in with that other fisherman last week.
When I got home from my session this morning I got to thinking that my rod in fact may be an 8 weight .
So with my fly rod I decided to head to a tackle shop.Found on the rod where it said 6 weight and they didn't have many reels in stock .But they did have this graphite (wont rust :wink: )Okuma reel and the price was right for me.And talking with the chap it is large arbour like my Irish reel unlike the shakespear reel .
