Equally at home on a single-hander in the salt or a spey rod a couple hundred miles from it, the Kraken XLA represents a surprisingly versatile reel in a very affordable package

This means that even if you perfectly avoid pulling extra Makura, youll still have to deal with these high enemies and their nasty abilities

Designed for long, comfortable days on the water, the rod features an ergonomic Split Grip handle

But for my money, Id cough up another $370 and upgrade to the Scott Sector, which was the best overall pick in our review of the best saltwater fly rods

For a dedicated light to keep in your kit, the BattlBox Flashlights collection is worth a look
