If you wanted to step up a price bracket, you really can't go wrong with a St. Croix in my experience.

Thank you. Was wanting to try getting into fly fishing for the first time. Honestly, I've fished with a normal rod and reel a handful of times so was curious what makes a fly fishing reel strictly for that type of fishing. thanks again.
I would definitely get one if you're in the market- it's super smooth and the gear ratio was great when reeling such a long distance up from the pier.
If I wouldn't get yelled at by my wife, I'd buy a couple more.
I will say that learning how to fly fish is much more 'multi-dimensional' compared to conventional/normal/regular fishing. It's a completely different set of gear and probably the most important thing you'll need to learn is how to cast and line management. It gets into other things too, like choosing flies/patterns and eventually tying your own flies. It's one of those hobbies that gets expensive really quickly depending on how far you want to dive in... and it's not easy to find yourself in the deep end of the pool with it. It is a lot of fun though. Perhaps consider looking to drop-in on a local fly fishing/fly casting club meetup in your area, if one exists.
