This wild new ultra large-arbor reel by Lamson pushes the boundaries in all the right ways
Buckle up. As we’ve said – the performance benchmark for a fly reel is retrieve rate per ounce. There’s no downside to a high retrieve rate other than the extra weight. Re-imagine what large arbor means, cast out any doubts about swing weight and try to keep up with the Hyperspeed F5 and F7 reels. The Hyperspeed F5 picks up 11.5″ of line, and the F7 retrieves 12.5″ of line.

The Hyperspeed F5 has changed how I cast. It’s lighter than expected and retrieves line much faster. I’ve been using it for trout fishing in the mountains and it handles windy conditions well.
Gabrielle McDonald –
I switched from my old reel to the F7 and noticed a big difference in casting speed. The line doesn’t coil as much, which helps with accuracy during long casts.
Evan Burgess –
Great performance for the price. The F5 works well for my daily trout trips. A bit heavier than I expected, but the retrieval speed is impressive.

After trying several reels, the Hyperspeed F7 stands out. The large arbor makes a noticeable difference in how smoothly the line moves during casting.
