I’ve used this reel on multiple trout streams in the Rockies. The weight is noticeably lighter than my previous model, and the drag holds strong even during long fights. The ported arbor feels solid and the retrieval is fast and responsive.
James Glover –
Great for fly fishing in remote areas. It’s light enough to carry all day, and the carbon fiber drag performs well in both still and moving water. A bit stiff to set up initially, but settles in quickly.

Felt like a game-changer on a recent redfish outing. The quick retrieval and reliable drag kept the fish in check during a long run. No issues with the aluminum body or drag performance.
