Retailing for $500.00 for the reel and $235.00 for the Galvan Torque Spare Spool , this "Excellent Condition" bundle offers a premium, American-made setup at a significant "Trade Up" discount. This is a top-tier choice for anglers who demand a lightweight reel with a drag system that remains smooth under the pressure of hard-running fish. Why You Need This Setup The Torque 8 (8 weight) is perfectly balanced for 8-weight saltwater or heavy freshwater rods. It features the Torque drag system , a state-of-the-art compression disc drag that is both micro-adjustable and incredibly consistent.
