In celebration of its 35th anniversary, Tibor will release this December its much-anticipated Signature Series. The reels feature an elegant design, along with something new from the company – a completely ventilated spool and frame and a redesigned cork drag system that’s totally sealed and waterproof. Crafted from bar-stock aluminum, the reels are offered in two sizes (7- to 9-weight and 8- to 10-weight). With a mechanical clutch system for easy left- to right-hand conversion, free nameplate engraving and Tibor’s patented QuickChange spool system, the Signature Series reels – as with all Tibors – are built to last in the United States. The new drag system can even be taken apart for maintenance without sacrificing the lifetime warranty. MSRP is $775 and $795. www.tiborreel.com
