Orvis Mirage LT Spool – SPOOL ONLY
*SPARE SPOOL ONLY*
The new Mirage LT fly reel is designed for lighter rods, offering everything the larger models provide but with a refined balance. It features a lighter version of the sealed and maintenance-free carbon and stainless steel disc drag system, which adjusts from zero to full drag in a single rotation of the drag knob.
With zero start-up inertia and precise low-end control, it eliminates line shock and protects light tippets while delivering silky smooth drag. The reel offers more stopping power than needed for trout, bass, pike, musky, or carp.
30% lighter and 30% narrower, the Mirage LT is made in New Hampshire by the same skilled American craftsmen who build the original Mirage reels.

I switched from a heavier reel to the Mirage LT spool and noticed a big difference in casting feel. The drag is smooth and responsive, especially when fishing with light tippets. No line shock, and the reel feels lighter in my hand. Perfect for trout and bass fishing.

The spool fits perfectly on my 6’6″ rod. It’s much more balanced and easier to handle than the older models. Drag adjustment is precise and the drag system stays reliable without needing maintenance.

Great for light fly fishing. The weight reduction makes it easier to carry on long days. Drag performance is excellent, though I’d recommend pairing it with a rod under 7 feet for optimal results.
