It's hard to avoid slang when I describe these fly fishing reels. They're so light they're sick. The Hard Alox finish keeps them looking beautiful for years of fly fishing and the fully sealed, conical drag system is as tough as the Hard Alox. This drag will protect your tippet and the precious fish at the end of the line will make it all the way to the net. $279-$419
The fly fishing company with the "Cleanest Line" is also the company that has set the bar for cold weather fly fishing gear. From the amazing line of Capilene under-wader-wear, which will keep you warm and dry on the most temperamental of fly fishing days, to stylish pullovers that work well both on or off the water or even the slopes, the fly fishing gear you want is in the store right now!
