, from São Paulo, Brazil Summary:
This is without a doubt one of the best fly reels made, and personally I think their only real competitor are Abel Reels. I own two models, the Gulfstream and the Riptide. If you want a great reel that you will use for your whole life then get a Tibor.
No wonder why this reel is the prefered one by pratically all Florida guides, wich are without a doubt the best guides in the world. Customer Service:
Excellent! This is a serious company. Similar Products Used:

, from Australia Summary:
My Everglades reel,or more particularly it's drag system,was recently severely tested in the remote saltwater environment of Northern Australia on Blue and Threadfin Salmon,Queenfish,Saratoga,Tarpon and the famous Barramundi.These fish give no quarter,and typically take either scorching runs or head for the nearest underwater obstruction.I believe many other drag systems in this situation would have just burned out.Additionally,at the end of the days fishing,other than backing off the drag,there's no maintenance on the Tibor.Definitely a precision instrument that just happens to be a fly reel.Now,about that Riptide....
