- Sage Enforcer Fly Reel by Farbank — Looking to bully some fish? A incredibly smooth reel with a ridiculously strong drag (sealed). I use this for saltwater and larger freshwater species (salmon, steelhead, carp….) definitely the burliest reel in my collection…
- Sage Spectrum LT Fly Reel by Sage — This is the reel I’m currently using for my dry fly set up. Well built and lightweight with an easy to use drag. I have paired the 5/6 with my 10’ 4wt Sage R8 and it quickly became my favorite dry fly rig for the upper Delaware system.
- Ross Animas Fly Reel - Fly Shop Exclusive Colors by Ross
- Sage ESN Reel by Sage — I have two of these- I think they are the ‘gold standard’ when it comes to a specific euro nymphing reel. The closed frame prevents slippage of thin leaders, micro adjustments for precise drag and the ability to adjust weight for balance makes it a perfect choice.
- Grande Limited Edition 7/8/9 Bonefish by Redington — Used this reel in Belize for a few days earlier this year- great drag and an amazing limited edition bonefish design!
