I'm a shimano guy, but this sparked my interest since before it was even released- http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Abu_Garc ... -RVNA.html

 

The Abu NACL, anyone have any use with this or insight? I sold my Calcutta B and need a new reel for my 867, this would look pretty tight.

 

Can anyone shed any light? differences between sizes in terms of baits/line etc...?

Toro's are pretty popular with musky guys so if the nacl is built as well they should hold up fine to swimbaiting. I had a toro 51 (non-nacl) and it was a solid feeling reel I just didn't care for the low profile and ended up giving it away.

 

I know a guy who has a couple in the bigger size but he hasn't fished them yet...

I like the toros, 50 and 60 size but the 60 is a little awkward in my hand, low profile but really wide and doesnt feel right... but that could stem from the fact im a round reel guy. The 50 on the other hand is a little more comfortable and they take a ton of abuse. offers low gear ratios too, althought my friend has a 60 in the 4.7:1 gearing and that feels a little slow for me, which is weird cuz i roll 5:1 reels, but you can feel the difference between the two.
