The Signature Series reel remains Charlton's most popular model. Its
quality and beauty are strikingly evident, and its extra-thick Type III
hard anodizing is the only type that penetrates the surface, which is
why Charlton Signature Series reels really will last a lifetime.

stainless steel quick-release knob and spool counterweights. Superior
