I had discussion started about my next reel purchase and been convinced and now excited to purchase my first Hardy. Perfect Taupo 3 7/8. After doing some research and little help of my friend I found out that there are two modern Taupo versions offered, pre 2012 and current Wide. Im debating between the two.
Pre 2012 non-wide Taupo weights at 7.5oz
Current Wide Taupo is 9.9oz
I think that non-wide would balance my current rod better than wide, but I really like wide reels from aesthetic aspect. How do these two reels compare in size, aesthetics, components, and such?
I am really thankfull for all that participates in my threads and helps me out! Such a great community!
