That reel is a few dollars to much for me. I have the new EON and it is a really nice reel.

FISH HARD WORK EASY!

I do have a Morrum. I realy like the real. It is the only reel Ambassadeur makes that compare to a Calcutta. I am not sure which I like best.

Hi Travis. I don't have the Morrum but I have a similar Ambassadeur reel that you can see on this link. This is Ambassadeurs factory outlet store.FFO This link takes you to their main page. Click on reels, then click on casting. The model I have is the TP5600C
I really like it. I have had mine a year with no problems. If you buy one from these people, you can return it if you don't like it.

By the way, thank you for helping ,my brother-in-law on the phone a couple of weeks ago. He had some questions about the Elk and Sixes, and I refered him to you. He was impressed with your help.

Troy

I received the reel from a friend.. actually owed me money and had a new inthe box 5600 Morrum that he bought (when he had money)
anyway I am a Shimano Chronarch guy so I think the Morrum will go on ebay to the highest bidder...

Thanks Troy, I am always happy to help..
Elk rivr will fish this weekend... if anyone is interested.!

Travis,

I have one of those Reels. Got it through the Guide Program with Abu Garcia. Very nice but awefully small. As you know, the retrieve ratio on that reel is something like 6.3 to 1...Very Fast and unbelievably smooth casting.

I like the reel but I don't think it's worth the +/- $300.00 it costs to buy one in the stores. I filled mine with 30# Tuff Line and use it for everything from Springers to drift fishing for steelhead.

Talk Soon,

Scott

Thanks to all you wonderful ifish people.
The guy that I got it from is a guide... so he bought it, I'm sure, through thier giude program.
I may just throw a TH 1084c on it and give it a rip this winter.. 15# power pro, it should be fine.

THANKS again
