My boss owns a custom fishing reel business as a subsidiary company to his prime company(the one I work for) and makes spinning reels.
He wanted me to do some market research about what people want to see in a fly reel, if anything, that would make the "ideal" fly reel. Basically if you were to design a fly reel for yourself, what features would it have, how big, etc. Also if there's something you thought would be a neat feature whether it is feasible or not what would it be?
One of things I am doing (I'm the one that is going to be designing it at some point) is making a superlight 1-2 weight backpacking reel with no drag (palm only) just to take with in backpacking gear.
I had checked with dkile and made sure he was okay with me asking this here and he gave me the okay to ask since I am not really marketing anything.
Thanks everyone!
