The High-Performance Workhorse. Silky Smooth Drag and Rugged Reliability.
The Galvan Torque 8 is the flagship of the Galvan line, known for its iconic ventilated frame and oversized drag knob. Retailing for $500.00 for the reel and $235.00 for the Galvan Torque Spare Spool, this "Excellent Condition" bundle offers a premium, American-made setup at a significant "Trade Up" discount. This is a top-tier choice for anglers who demand a lightweight reel with a drag system that remains smooth under the pressure of hard-running fish.
Why You Need This Setup
The Torque 8 (8 weight) is perfectly balanced for 8-weight saltwater or heavy freshwater rods. It features the Torque drag system, a state-of-the-art compression disc drag that is both micro-adjustable and incredibly consistent. The 65lb Gel Spun backing already loaded on this setup is a major bonus; it provides significantly more capacity than standard Dacron, giving you peace of mind when a big fish heads for the horizon. Having the spare spool included allows for instant transitions between a floating line for the flats and a sinking line for deeper channels or heavy current.
