The Tibor Riptide: bomb-proof, reliable, and timeless. One of our favorite reels ever made for 9-10wt fishing. The cork drag offers little to no start-up inertia which also translates to smoothness throughout every stage of the drag when tightening/loosening. It is standard on all Tibor reels, in every model and every size. This is ideal for fast accelerating fish like bonefish, tarpon, permit, etc. Its stunning, "old school" like, looks age like fine wine. This is the sleek, Frost Black finish from Tibor.
