It has become a favorite among anglers who fish trout, bass, carp, steelhead, bonefish, and redfish because it offers many of Nautilus' signature technologies without the size, weight, or cost of the CCF-X2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a dedicated big-game reel. Instead, it excels as an all-around performer for anglers who value low weight, fast line pickup, and a smooth sealed drag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SCF-X drag system?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SCF-X is a sealed Teflon and carbon fiber disc drag system exclusive to the X Series. It's fully sealed against water, sand, and debris using Nautilus's ActivSeal technology, and is adjusted via an oversized drag knob with textured grip surfaces for reliable control in wet and cold conditions. The drag range is wide — smooth enough to protect 6x tippet on small trout and strong enough to handle the runs of inshore saltwater species.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is ActivSeal technology?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eActivSeal is Nautilus's proprietary precision-machined drag seal that actively repels water, sand, salt, and other contaminants from the braking system. Unlike passive seals that simply block debris, ActivSeal is engineered to expel contaminants as the drag is used, keeping the system clean and consistent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the Nautilus X Series for saltwater fishing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, with some distinctions by size. The XS and XM are designed primarily for freshwater use. The XL and XL MAX are saltwater-rated — reviewers have used the XL MAX on bonefish in the Bahamas with excellent results, noting it's approximately 40% lighter than traditional bonefish reels of similar performance. For heavy, dedicated saltwater applications like permit or tarpon, Nautilus recommends stepping up to the CCF-X2 or NV-G series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Nautilus X?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe biggest downside is that it occupies somewhat of a middle ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're primarily a trout angler, there are lighter and less expensive reels available that will accomplish the same job. If you're primarily a saltwater angler, there are stronger reels designed specifically for those applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nautilus X makes the most sense for anglers who genuinely value versatility.

It has earned a loyal following among guides and destination anglers because it combines exceptional stopping power with one of the fastest spool retrieval rates in fly fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the top-selling saltwater reels in our entire lineup because it is reliable, durable, and has been proving itself for many years across all walks of fisheries. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Nautilus CCF-X2 a Good Saltwater Fly Reel?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe CCF-X2 was purpose-built for saltwater fishing and is widely regarded as one of the premier saltwater fly reels available today. Its sealed drag system, lightweight construction, and oversized arbor design make it a favorite among anglers targeting bonefish, permit, tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other powerful gamefish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the reel's defining characteristics is how quickly it picks up line, helping anglers stay connected to fast-moving fish and recover slack line during critical moments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Nautilus CCF-X2 Drag System Different?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe drag system is the defining feature of the CCF-X2. Nautilus's Disc Braking System utilizes a dual-action cork and carbon fiber design with roughly twice the drag surface area of the previous generation reel. The result is exceptional stopping power, smooth performance, and remarkably low startup inertia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaired with hybrid ceramic bearings, the CCF-X2 delivers less than 1% startup inertia across all drag settings. In practical terms, that means the drag starts smoothly when a fish takes off, helping protect light tippets while maintaining consistent pressure throughout the fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother standout feature is Nautilus's InfinAdjust drag system. The oversized drag knob provides six full turns of adjustment, allowing anglers to move from nearly zero resistance to more than 20 pounds of drag pressure with precise control. Unlike reels that make large drag changes with a small turn of the knob, the CCF-X2 allows anglers to fine-tune settings without fear of over-adjusting at a critical moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Smooth Is the Nautilus CCF-X2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CCF-X2 was engineered to minimize weight while maximizing performance. Nautilus utilizes proprietary TPX thermoplastic bushings that are self-lubricating, corrosion-proof, and designed for virtually zero wear. These bushings provide the smooth feel anglers expect from traditional bearing systems while reducing weight and increasing long-term durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombined with hybrid ceramic bearings and the reel's sealed drag system, the result is a reel that feels exceptionally smooth under load while maintaining the rugged reliability required for saltwater fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Does the CCF-X2 Retrieve Line So Quickly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most recognizable features of the CCF-X2 is its oversized Giga Arbor design. The large spool diameter allows anglers to recover more than a foot of line with every turn of the handle, helping eliminate slack quickly when fish charge the boat or suddenly change direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fast retrieval rate has made the reel especially popular among permit, tarpon, roosterfish, and giant trevally anglers, where staying connected to a fast-moving fish can often determine whether it is landed or lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Giga Arbor design also incorporates ventilation grooves that allow backing to dry more quickly after use, helping reduce moisture retention during travel and long-term storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Nautilus CCF-X2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CCF-X2 was designed around performance, and some anglers may find that its appearance and engineering are more modern than traditional.

Hatch now use a bright dip finishing that brings out the shine of the machined parts while also keeping the strong coloring of matte anodize. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReel Seat\u003c\/strong\u003e - The first and now one of the only reel manufacturers to make the reel body out of one piece.

Known for its sealed drag, exceptional durability, and smooth performance, the Iconic has become one of the most trusted reels in fly fishing. It's equally at home on a Montana trout river, a Great Lakes steelhead stream, a Louisiana marsh, or a Bahamian bonefish flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest strengths of the Iconic lineup is its versatility. The smaller models excel in freshwater applications, while the larger sizes have become go-to choices for permit, tarpon, striped bass, giant trevally, and other powerful gamefish. If you're looking for a reel that can handle years of travel, harsh conditions, and hard-fighting fish, the Hatch Iconic is difficult to beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Hatch Iconic a Good Saltwater Fly Reel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely. The Hatch Iconic was built with saltwater fishing in mind and has become one of the most trusted reels on flats skiffs, tarpon boats, and coastal fisheries around the world. The fully sealed drag system helps protect against salt, sand, and moisture, while the reel's rugged construction is designed to withstand years of hard use. From bonefish and permit to tarpon, striped bass, and giant trevally, the Iconic has proven itself in some of the toughest saltwater environments on the planet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Hatch Iconic Fully Sealed?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eYes. Every Hatch Iconic features a fully sealed drag system designed to keep out water, salt, sand, and other debris. This not only improves reliability in harsh conditions but also reduces maintenance compared to many traditional drag systems. It's one of the primary reasons the Iconic has become such a popular choice among guides and traveling anglers.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Hatch Iconic Have a Reliable Drag System?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe drag system is one of the primary reasons anglers choose Hatch. The Iconic features a fully sealed, multi-disc drag that delivers smooth startup inertia and consistent pressure throughout the fight. That may not sound exciting on paper, but it makes a noticeable difference when a bonefish suddenly changes direction, a tarpon surges boatside, or a steelhead makes a blistering downstream run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sealed design helps protect the system from water, salt, sand, and debris, while the large drag knob allows for quick and precise adjustments on the fly. The result is a drag system that has earned the trust of guides and anglers pursuing everything from trout and steelhead to permit, tarpon, and giant trevally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I Use the Same Hatch Iconic for Freshwater and Saltwater Fishing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely. In fact, that's one of the reasons so many anglers choose the Iconic. Models like the 5+, 7+, and 9+ regularly pull double duty across a wide range of fisheries. It's not uncommon for an angler to fish the same reel for steelhead in the fall, striped bass in the spring, and bonefish on a tropical flats trip. The sealed drag and corrosion-resistant construction make the transition between freshwater and saltwater seamless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Much Maintenance Does the Hatch Iconic Require?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the biggest advantages of the Iconic is how little maintenance it requires. After a day on the water—especially in saltwater—a thorough freshwater rinse is usually all that's needed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Hatch Iconic?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe most obvious drawback is price. The Iconic sits firmly in the premium reel category, making it a significant investment compared to many quality freshwater and saltwater reels on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome anglers also find the Iconic to be slightly heavier than competing reels in the same class. While that added weight contributes to its durability and solid feel, anglers focused on building the lightest possible outfit may prefer a different option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drag system is exceptionally smooth and powerful, but it was designed with reliability and consistency in mind rather than offering the widest drag adjustment range in the industry. For the vast majority of anglers, this is a non-issue, but anglers chasing records or wanting to know exactly what amount of pressure they can apply, there are better options out there such as Mako or the Hardy Fortuna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat said, most of the tradeoffs associated with the Iconic are a direct result of what makes it so popular. Hatch built the reel to be exceptionally durable, dependable, and capable of handling years of hard use in both freshwater and saltwater environments. For anglers looking for a reel they can fish for decades, those tradeoffs are often well worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hatch","offers":[{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 3+","offer_id":44121458114874,"sku":"IC3-BLK-LA-A","price":621.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 4+","offer_id":44121458245946,"sku":"IC4-BLK-LA-A","price":679.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 5+","offer_id":44121458377018,"sku":"IC5-BLK-LA-A","price":739.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 7+","offer_id":44121458508090,"sku":"IC7-BLK-LA-A","price":856.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 9+","offer_id":44121458639162,"sku":"IC9-BLK-LA-A","price":1033.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black\/Silver \/ 11+","offer_id":44121458770234,"sku":"IC11-BLK-LA-A","price":1068.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 3+","offer_id":44121458147642,"sku":"IC3-CB-LA-A","price":621.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 4+","offer_id":44121458278714,"sku":"IC4-CB-LA-A","price":679.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 5+","offer_id":44121458409786,"sku":"IC5-CB-LA-A","price":739.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 7+","offer_id":44121458540858,"sku":"IC7-CB-LA-A","price":856.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 9+","offer_id":44121458671930,"sku":"IC9-CB-LA-A","price":1033.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Blue \/ 11+","offer_id":44121458803002,"sku":"IC11-CB-LA-A","price":1122.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 3+","offer_id":44121458180410,"sku":"IC3-CR-LA-A","price":621.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 4+","offer_id":44121458311482,"sku":"IC4-CR-LA-A","price":679.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 5+","offer_id":44121458442554,"sku":"IC5-CR-LA-A","price":739.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 7+","offer_id":44121458573626,"sku":"IC7-CR-LA-A","price":856.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 9+","offer_id":44121458704698,"sku":"IC9-CR-LA-A","price":1033.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear\/Red \/ 11+","offer_id":44121458835770,"sku":"IC11-CR-LA-A","price":1122.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 3+","offer_id":44121458213178,"sku":"IC3-GBK-LA-A","price":621.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 4+","offer_id":44121458344250,"sku":"IC4-GBK-LA-A","price":679.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 5+","offer_id":44121458475322,"sku":"IC5-GBK-LA-A","price":739.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 7+","offer_id":44121458606394,"sku":"IC7-GBK-LA-A","price":856.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 9+","offer_id":44121458737466,"sku":"IC9-GBK-LA-A","price":1033.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray\/Black \/ 11+","offer_id":44121458868538,"sku":"IC11-GBK-LA-A","price":1068.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/products\/Iconic4PlusReel_BlackSilver_LargeArbor_Front.jpg?v=1681329936"},{"product_id":"shilton-sr-series-reel","title":"Shilton SR Series","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Shilton SR Series is the latest addition to our already sterling range of reels.

The SR12 is sized for a 12-weight single-hander or 15ft Spey rod. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse;

Designed specifically for saltwater fishing, the SR combines rugged construction, massive stopping power, and exceptional durability into a reel capable of handling some of the strongest fish on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom permit, tarpon, and giant trevally to tigerfish, golden dorado, and roosterfish, the SR Series is built for situations where fish routinely test tackle to its limits. Anglers looking for a lightweight reel or a traditional trout reel should probably look elsewhere. The SR was designed with one goal in mind: stopping powerful fish in demanding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Shilton SR Drag System Different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe drag system is the heart of every Shilton reel. The SR Series features an oversized cork drag that was redesigned to provide less startup inertia and increased stopping power compared to previous generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilton also increased drag engagement by adding a third enclosed one-way plunger, up from two on previous models. The result is greater durability, smoother engagement, and more consistent drag performance under heavy loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Species Is the Shilton SR Best Suited For?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SR Series excels when targeting powerful gamefish that require substantial drag pressure and durability. Popular applications include tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, tigerfish, striped bass, peacock bass, King salmon, and arapaima.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the SR9 is an excellent option for bonefish and permit, the reel truly shines when connected to larger fish capable of long runs and sustained battles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Shilton SR Series?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe biggest potential downside of the SR Series is that it was designed for a very specific purpose. This is not a reel built around minimizing weight, maximizing versatility, or appealing to the broadest range of anglers. Instead, Shilton focused on creating a reel capable of handling the most demanding saltwater and freshwater gamefish on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a result, the SR may feel like more reel than necessary for anglers who are just getting started in their saltwater fly fishing journey. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilton also prioritizes function more than anything. The SR is built to perform in remote, high-pressure environments where tackle failure is not an option.

Every aspect of the reel—from the sealed carbon fiber drag system to the large-arbor spool and rapid drag adjustment—was engineered with real-world saltwater fishing in mind. The result is a reel that inspires confidence when the fish, conditions, and stakes are at their highest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Fortuna Regent Drag System Different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the standout features is the drag adjustment itself. Hardy designed the Fortuna Regent with a positive, linear drag system that reaches its optimum adjustment range within a single turn of the drag knob. Defined detents provide clear feedback when making adjustments, allowing anglers to quickly and confidently increase or decrease drag pressure during a fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Does the Fortuna Regent Retrieve Line So Quickly?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Fortuna Regent combines a large-arbor spool with a narrow spool profile to maximize both line retrieval and line management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe large arbor allows anglers to recover line quickly when a fish changes direction or charges the boat, while the narrow spool helps maintain even line stacking without requiring constant attention during the fight. This becomes especially valuable when targeting species like permit, tarpon, giant trevally, and roosterfish, where staying connected to the fish often depends on eliminating slack as quickly as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Hardy Fortuna Regent?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Fortuna Regent is unapologetically focused on saltwater performance. Features like the high-output drag system, large-arbor design, and substantial backing capacity are tremendous advantages when pursuing tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other powerful gamefish, but they may be unnecessary for anglers focused on lighter freshwater applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drag system is also designed for fast, deliberate adjustment. Hardy concentrated the reel's optimal drag range within a single turn of the drag knob, allowing anglers to make meaningful adjustments quickly. While this is a major advantage when fighting hard-running fish, some anglers may prefer the slower, more incremental adjustments. However, if you are someone fishing class tippets, this reel is one of the very best. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anglers heading to destinations where tackle is routinely pushed to its limits, however, those characteristics are exactly what make the Fortuna Regent so effective. It is a reel designed for situations where drag performance, line control, and reliability matter far more than shaving a few ounces from your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hardy","offers":[{"title":"Silver \/ 8000 (7 - 9WT)","offer_id":44544486113594,"sku":"HREFTR08","price":775.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ 10000 (9- 11WT)","offer_id":44544486179130,"sku":"HREFTR10","price":875.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ 12000 (11+WT)","offer_id":44544486211898,"sku":"HREFTR12","price":975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 8000 (7 - 9WT)","offer_id":44544486244666,"sku":"HREFTR08B","price":775.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 10000 (9- 11WT)","offer_id":44544486277434,"sku":"HREFTR10B","price":875.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ 12000 (11+WT)","offer_id":44544486310202,"sku":"HREFTR12B","price":975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/products\/2b6a25ad4f9d9024a8b8985bdf6850de.jpg?v=1677012159"},{"product_id":"sage-enforcer","title":"Sage ENFORCER","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn of the performance of our renowned THERMO big game bluewater reels, the Sage ENFORCER has been updated and fine-tuned for the power, reliability, and dura- bility needs of the saltwater flats angler. Designed with peak performance in mind, the ENFORCER offers everything the flats angler needs in a reel, whether taming the explosive runs of double-digit Bonefish or putting the brakes on the freight train pull of triple-digit tarpon. Simply put, this is the ultimate saltwater reel for flats and heavy-duty fly-fishing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut battles on the flats are exercises in nuance and chaos, so we’ve beefed up the O-rings and drag plates for added durability, consistency, and reliability. Maximum drag has been increased by 50% over the ENFORCER’s predecessor, the SPECTRUM MAX; you’ll find eight pounds at the arbor in the 7\/8 size, 15 pounds in the 9\/10 size, and 17 pounds at the arbor in the 11\/12 size. For saltwater anglers fishing heavy tippets who don’t want to let fish run continuously—or who care enough about their fingers to avoid palming fast spinning spools—this increased drag allows them to get most out of their reel without sacrificing any metacarpals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the first time an angler stepped onto the flats with a fly rod, it’s been well known that reels can take a beating in this environment; sand, wind, and salt love nothing more than finding a cozy spot inside a saltwater reel. The ENFORCER is more durable than any of our saltwater flats reels, with larger drag discs to better disperse pressure and maintain the consistency of the power band throughout the fight by stabilizing inherent stopping strength. An all-new reel foot design with radiused corners prevents abrasion to leaders wrapped around the reel foot for storage—or in the unfortunate, but inevitable, moments when the line wraps around the foot in the initial chaos of the hookup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake these features—the old standbys, the innovations—and wrap them up in a bur- lier and more rigid and rugged cold-forged aluminum frame and you have a reel that will stand up to the drops, knocks, and beatdowns that frequently occur in saltwater fishing situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50% Higher Drag Than SPECTRUM Family \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnlarged and Improved Seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreased Durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore Rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Radius Cornered Reel Foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSage Warranty Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery new Sage rod, blank and Sage series reel is covered by our original owner warranty against defects in materials or workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis warranty is limited to repair and replacement of the rod, blank, or reel and does not cover direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, or any other type of damage resulting from the use of the product.

Built from the foundation of Sage's THERMO bluewater reels, the ENFORCER combines substantial drag power, exceptional durability, and rugged construction into a reel optimized for permit, bonefish, tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other hard-fighting gamefish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the ENFORCER's biggest strengths is the value it offers. While many premium saltwater reels now push the thousand-dollar mark, the ENFORCER delivers fully sealed drag performance, impressive stopping power, and reliability at a more approachable price point. For anglers assembling their first dedicated saltwater outfit—or experienced travelers looking for a reel that performs well without carrying the same price tag—the ENFORCER stands out as one of the strongest values in saltwater fly fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Sage ENFORCER Drag System Different?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe ENFORCER features a fully sealed carbon fiber drag system that delivers substantially more stopping power than the previous Sage SPECTRUM MAX platform. Maximum drag has increased by roughly 50%, resulting in approximately 8 pounds of drag in the 7\/8WT, 15 pounds in the 9\/10WT, and 17 pounds in the 11\/12WT.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore importantly, Sage enlarged the drag discs and improved the internal sealing system to create a broader, more consistent power band throughout the fight. The larger drag surface helps distribute pressure more evenly while maintaining smooth, predictable performance under heavy loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is the Purpose of the New Reel Foot Design?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eOne of the most overlooked improvements on the ENFORCER is the redesigned reel foot. Sage incorporated radiused corners to help prevent abrasion when leaders are wrapped around the reel for storage, as well as providing a little cushion in the event your line wraps around the foot after you first hook up and the fish takes its first run. These small details help land more fish!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Do the Numbers on the Sage ENFORCER Drag Knob Mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnlike many fly reels that use unmarked drag knobs, the Sage ENFORCER features a numbered drag adjustment system that allows anglers to make repeatable, predictable drag changes on the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis may seem like a small detail, but it becomes surprisingly useful when switching between species, adjusting for different tippet strengths, or trying to quickly return to a drag setting that worked previously. Rather than guessing where the drag was set, anglers can simply note the number and return to that exact setting later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe numbered system is particularly valuable in saltwater fishing, where conditions can change quickly. An angler might fish a lighter setting for bonefish, increase drag pressure for permit, or make substantial adjustments during a tarpon fight. The ability to reference specific drag settings removes much of the guesswork and helps create consistency from one fish to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sage","offers":[{"title":"Granite \/ 7\/8WT","offer_id":44544486506810,"sku":"32-6500R7802","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Granite \/ 9\/10WT","offer_id":44544486539578,"sku":"32-6500R91002","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Granite \/ 11\/12WT","offer_id":44544486572346,"sku":"32-6500R111202","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stealth \/ 7\/8WT","offer_id":44544486408506,"sku":"32-6500R7801","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stealth \/ 9\/10WT","offer_id":44544486441274,"sku":"32-6500R91001","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stealth \/ 11\/12WT","offer_id":44544486474042,"sku":"32-6500R111201","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tempest Blue \/ 7\/8WT","offer_id":44544486605114,"sku":"32-6500R7803","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tempest Blue \/ 9\/10WT","offer_id":44544486637882,"sku":"32-6500R91003","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tempest Blue \/ 11\/12WT","offer_id":44544486670650,"sku":"32-6500R111203","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/products\/e541920e8ac1632e626c76588303cb3a.jpg?v=1681408903"},{"product_id":"ross-evolution-fs","title":"Ross Evolution FS","description":"\u003ch3\u003eRoss Evolution FS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe multi-award winning Ross Evolution FS reel is designed to be the most robust reel in the Ross lineup with the ability to tackle just about everything from single, or two-handed freshwater conditions to epic saltwater challenges.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe FS hybridizes our favorite drag system features of the award-winning LTX and Animas model reels creating a design that offers a whole new level of drag strength for both fresh and saltwater conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ross","offers":[{"title":"Matte Black \/ 4\/5","offer_id":45028788470074,"sku":"70400000286","price":549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Black \/ 5\/6","offer_id":45028788502842,"sku":"70400000290","price":549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Black \/ 7\/8","offer_id":45028788535610,"sku":"70400000294","price":649.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Black \/ 9\/10","offer_id":45028788568378,"sku":"70400000298","price":649.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Platinum \/ 4\/5","offer_id":45028788601146,"sku":"70400000288","price":549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Platinum \/ 5\/6","offer_id":45028788633914,"sku":"70400000292","price":549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Platinum \/ 7\/8","offer_id":45028788666682,"sku":"70400000296","price":649.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Platinum \/ 9\/10","offer_id":45028788699450,"sku":"70400000300","price":649.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/files\/evolution-fs-black-reel_1.jpg?v=1683817031"},{"product_id":"lamson-centerfire-reel","title":"Lamson Centerfire - Eclipse","description":"\u003ch3\u003eLamson Centerfire Reel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a bullet proof workhorse for your stable of reels, with everything you need and nothing you don’t—turn off your smart phone, check your knots and get to work. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigning Centerfire, we drew from the strongest and most reliable elements from over a quarter century of fly reel production.

Designed around a 10- to 12-weight platform, the 9600 excels when maximum backing capacity, drag consistency, and durability are non-negotiable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates the 9600 from many other big-game reels is not simply the amount of drag it can produce, but the precision with which that drag can be applied. The calibrated drag knob and one-turn drag system allow anglers to make repeatable, measurable adjustments and know exactly where their drag is set at all times. For anglers targeting IGFA records or fishing specific tippet classes, that level of precision can be every bit as important as maximum drag output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're chasing giant trevally on remote coral flats, migratory tarpon in the Keys, large roosterfish along Pacific beaches, or other fish capable of taking hundreds of yards of backing, the 9600 provides the control and confidence needed when every pound of pressure matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Mako 9600 Drag System Different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 9600 utilizes Mako's multidisc, full-contact carbon-fiber drag system with proprietary button technology. This design virtually eliminates startup inertia, allowing the drag to engage smoothly and consistently from the moment a fish begins its run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than focusing solely on generating maximum drag, Mako engineered the system to deliver precise, repeatable pressure throughout the drag range. The result is exceptional control when fighting fish that demand both finesse and power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Is the Mako 9600 Popular with IGFA Anglers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany serious IGFA anglers appreciate the Mako's ability to deliver repeatable drag settings and exceptionally smooth startup performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen fishing light-class tippets or targeting record fish, knowing exactly how much pressure is being applied can be critical. The calibrated drag system allows anglers to establish specific drag settings and return to them consistently, while the smooth drag engagement helps protect lighter tackle during sudden runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFew reels have developed a stronger reputation among anglers who prioritize drag precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9600 Fully Sealed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The 9600 features Mako's fully sealed architecture utilizing O-rings and proprietary carbon\/Teflon lip seals to prevent water, salt, sand, and debris from entering the drag system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design helps ensure long-term reliability and consistent drag performance even after years of use in harsh saltwater environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9600 Worth the Investment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor anglers who regularly pursue tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, tuna, and other true big-game species, the answer is often yes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9600 sits at the highest end of the market, but it offers a combination of drag precision, sealing, durability, and long-term reliability that few reels can match. Many owners view a Mako not as a seasonal purchase, but as a lifetime piece of equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Mako 9600?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe biggest drawback for many anglers is weight. The 9600 is intentionally overbuilt compared to some competitors, and anglers seeking the lightest possible setup may find other options more appealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also a highly specialized reel. Much of its engineering is designed around big-game saltwater fishing, extreme drag performance, and long-term durability.

It sits between the Nautilus X and the GTX, combining lightweight performance with a more powerful drag system and greater versatility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an excellent reel for anglers targeting trout, bass, carp, steelhead, salmon, bonefish, redfish, and similar species on 5- through 8-weight rods. If your fishing regularly crosses environments and species, the GTS is one of the most versatile reels Nautilus has ever produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Nautilus GTS Different from the Nautilus X?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe GTS is more of a crossover reel. While the Nautilus X leans heavily toward lightweight freshwater and light saltwater applications, the GTS incorporates technology derived from the flagship GTX platform and offers a broader drag range with more adjustment throughout the fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GTS also replaces the long-running NV-G series and introduces several practical features, including integrated backing markers, expanded drag adjustment, and a redesigned spool release cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Does the Nautilus GTS Compare to the Nautilus CCF-X2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe GTS and CCF-X2 serve very different purposes. The CCF-X2 is built around maximum drag performance and targets species such as permit, tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other fish where extreme drag pressure becomes important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GTS is designed around versatility. It offers more drag than most anglers will ever need on a 5- through 8-weight rod, but it does so with a broader adjustment range and a lighter overall package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Nautilus GTS?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe biggest downside is price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GTS sits well above some other freshwater reels for the market. Anglers looking for a dedicated trout reel can find plenty of excellent options for less money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other consideration is that many anglers simply do not need everything the GTS offers. If you fish exclusively for trout, there are lighter and less expensive reels that will perform just as well. Likewise, if your primary focus is saltwater species, you'd likely be better served by a CCF-X2 or GTX.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GTS makes the most sense for anglers who genuinely move between multiple fisheries and want one reel that can comfortably handle all of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nautilus","offers":[{"title":"Brushed Titanium \/ 5\/6","offer_id":45054946836794,"sku":"GTS56C","price":655.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brushed Titanium \/ 7\/8","offer_id":45054946902330,"sku":"GTS78C","price":675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ 5\/6","offer_id":45054946771258,"sku":"GTS56B","price":655.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 7\/8","offer_id":45054946869562,"sku":"GTS78B","price":675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/files\/GTS-7-8_Silver_Front.webp?v=1782912180"},{"product_id":"nautilus-gtr-reel","title":"Nautilus GTR Reel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe GTR pushes the GT Series toward maximum power, built for anglers who demand precise, dependable performance in saltwater and heavy freshwater.

While many premium reels focus on maximum drag numbers, Mako built its reputation on delivering smooth, repeatable, and measurable drag performance throughout the entire range of adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe large calibrated drag knob and one-turn drag system allow anglers to make precise adjustments and return to the same settings every time. This level of consistency is especially valuable for anglers fishing specific tippet classes, targeting world-record fish, or pursuing species where applying the correct amount of pressure can mean the difference between landing a fish and breaking it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anglers pursuing IGFA records, this precision becomes even more important. Knowing exactly where the drag is set—and having confidence that the reel will deliver that pressure smoothly without startup spikes—can be a significant advantage when fishing light-class tippets and record-eligible tackle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9500 is ideally suited for bonefish, permit, redfish, snook, striped bass, and other species where drag smoothness and control are often more important than simply generating maximum stopping power. Combined with its fully sealed architecture and exceptional durability, the result is a reel built for anglers who demand consistency, repeatability, and absolute confidence every time a fish takes off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9500 Fully Sealed?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eYes. The 9500 features a fully sealed architecture protected by a combination of O-rings and proprietary carbon\/Teflon lip seals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design prevents saltwater, sand, and debris from entering the drag system and internal components, helping ensure consistent performance in harsh saltwater environments year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Is the Mako 9500 Heavier Than Some Other Reels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMako has always prioritized durability and performance over minimizing weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9500 is built from premium materials and robust components that contribute to its reputation for long-term reliability. While some reels achieve lower weights through aggressive porting and lighter construction, Mako focuses on creating reels capable of withstanding years of hard use in demanding saltwater fisheries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany owners consider the slight increase in weight a worthwhile tradeoff for the reel's durability and drag performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9500 Worth the Investment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor anglers who place a premium on drag quality, the answer is often yes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9500 sits firmly in the premium category, but it delivers one of the smoothest and most controllable drag systems available in fly fishing. Combined with exceptional sealing, robust construction, and long-term reliability, the reel has earned a devoted following among serious saltwater anglers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany Mako owners buy the reel with the expectation that it will serve them for decades rather than seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Mako 9500?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe biggest drawback for some anglers is weight. The 9500 is not the lightest reel in its class, and anglers who prioritize minimizing swing weight may prefer other options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also an expensive reel, and much of its engineering is focused on drag performance and durability rather than aesthetics or weight reduction. Anglers who fish primarily freshwater or make only occasional saltwater trips may not fully benefit from what makes a Mako special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anglers who appreciate precise drag control, exceptional startup smoothness, and uncompromising reliability, however, those tradeoffs are often exactly why they choose a Mako in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mako Reels","offers":[{"title":"Matte Black","offer_id":45150044422458,"sku":"9500-810-M-B-LH","price":1360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Platinum on Black","offer_id":45150044455226,"sku":"9500-810-M-P-B-LH","price":1360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Turquoise on Black","offer_id":45150044487994,"sku":"9500-810-M-T-B-LH","price":1360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/products\/fullsizeoutput_2c_1296x_8f89c23d-cc8f-47a5-9609-2cd6239f1a2c.webp?v=1683909879"},{"product_id":"orvis-mirage-lt","title":"Orvis Mirage LT","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThere are times when less is more—the new Mirage LT fly reel is everything its big brother is, but designed to balance perfectly with lighter rods and yet still offer legendary Mirage engineering and performance. Mirage LT features a lighter version of the sealed and maintenance-free carbon and stainless steel disc drag system that adjusts from zero to full drag in a single drag knob rotation. With zero start-up inertia and precise low-end control it eliminates line shock and protects light tippets with the same silky smooth drag, and yet offers more stopping power than you will ever need 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 that build the Mirage. The LT offers the same increased retrieve rates, reduction in line coil, and is machined from the same strong, yet lightweight, 6061 T6 aluminum barstock as the Mirage. Ergonomically designed, machined aluminum handle. Quick-release spool easily converts from left- to right-hand retrieve. Type II anodizing. Titanium shaft reduces weight and adds durable power transmission. Fully radiused reel foot prevents kinked leaders. Low-profile counterweight won't catch fingers or fly lines.

Mass and balance were given equally-high attention in our design process as we updated model sizing to better align with matching Spey rods and we adjusted the location of the reel foot to provide uniform axial balance with the rod. A full-frame design eliminates the possibility of shooting lines slipping between spool and frame and the addition of a machined radius around the reel foot makes for comfortable wrapping of leader, tip, or tippet.

It measures 4.375\" in diameter vs. 4.0\", is 1.85\" wide vs. 1.65\", and weighs 10.9 oz vs. 9 oz. Crucially, the Gulfstream handles 11 through 15 weight rods vs. the Riptide’s 9 through 11, and holds 300 yards of 30 lb Micron vs. 200 yards — a significant increase in backing capacity for species that make sustained, long-distance runs. The Gulfstream also comes standard with Tibor’s Gorilla Handle, a heavier-duty, larger-diameter retrieval handle designed for the sustained cranking that large tarpon, pelagics, and heavy salmon demand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the Gulfstream handle offshore bluewater species like sailfish, marlin, and tuna?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The Gulfstream’s 300 yards of 30 lb Micron (or 300 yards of 80 lb Power Pro braided backing) provides the capacity needed for fast offshore pelagics, and the cork drag delivers the sustained pressure required during extended fights with sailfish, cobia, and mid-size tuna. For very large marlin or bluefin tuna on heavy 14–15 weight tackle, the Gulfstream can be rigged with 80 lb braid for maximum breaking strength. For the absolute heaviest offshore applications, Tibor offers the Pacific model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Tibor Gulfstream?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Gulfstream has a few genuine trade-offs worth knowing before purchase. First, at 10.9 oz it is among the heavier reels in its class — the Nautilus GTR 10\/11 at 6.7 oz and the Shilton SL12 at 10.2 oz both weigh less, which matters during a full day of casting 12-weight outfits. Second, the cork drag is not sealed, requiring diligent rinsing and periodic maintenance. Third, like all Tibors, the arbor is smaller by modern large-arbor standards, meaning line retrieval per rotation is slower than current-generation large-arbor reels. Fourth, the Gulfstream is a single-size reel with no size variation within the model — anglers fishing line weights below 11 should look at the Riptide, while those needing maximum capacity beyond 15 weight should move to the Pacific. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter each use, Tibor Reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. Periodically, especially after extensive exposure to saltwater, the line and backing should be removed and wiped down with a wet cloth to remove salt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo disassemble a reel for cleaning, the only tool required is a penny. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease note: Exceeding the recommended capacity by over-filling the spool and\/or putting line on too tightly or with too much tension may damage the spool and is not covered under warranty. Please refer to the capacity chart above as your guide. Monofilment line is not recommended for use on Tibor reels. Should you have any questions about backing for your reel, please contact your authorized Tibor Dealer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConversion from Left to Right Hand Retrieve\u003cbr\u003eTibor Reels can be easily converted from Left to Right Hand Retrieve by relocating the clutch dogs.

It measures 4.375\" in diameter vs. 4.0\", is 1.85\" wide vs. 1.65\", and weighs 10.9 oz vs. 9 oz. Crucially, the Gulfstream handles 11 through 15 weight rods vs. the Riptide’s 9 through 11, and holds 300 yards of 30 lb Micron vs. 200 yards — a significant increase in backing capacity for species that make sustained, long-distance runs. The Gulfstream also comes standard with Tibor’s Gorilla Handle, a heavier-duty, larger-diameter retrieval handle designed for the sustained cranking that large tarpon, pelagics, and heavy salmon demand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the Gulfstream handle offshore bluewater species like sailfish, marlin, and tuna?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The Gulfstream’s 300 yards of 30 lb Micron (or 300 yards of 80 lb Power Pro braided backing) provides the capacity needed for fast offshore pelagics, and the cork drag delivers the sustained pressure required during extended fights with sailfish, cobia, and mid-size tuna. For very large marlin or bluefin tuna on heavy 14–15 weight tackle, the Gulfstream can be rigged with 80 lb braid for maximum breaking strength. For the absolute heaviest offshore applications, Tibor offers the Pacific model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Tibor Gulfstream?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Gulfstream has a few genuine trade-offs worth knowing before purchase. First, at 10.9 oz it is among the heavier reels in its class — the Nautilus GTR 10\/11 at 6.7 oz and the Shilton SL12 at 10.2 oz both weigh less, which matters during a full day of casting 12-weight outfits. Second, the cork drag is not sealed, requiring diligent rinsing and periodic maintenance. Third, like all Tibors, the arbor is smaller by modern large-arbor standards, meaning line retrieval per rotation is slower than current-generation large-arbor reels. Fourth, the Gulfstream is a single-size reel with no size variation within the model — anglers fishing line weights below 11 should look at the Riptide, while those needing maximum capacity beyond 15 weight should move to the Pacific. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter each use, Tibor Reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. Periodically, especially after extensive exposure to saltwater, the line and backing should be removed and wiped down with a wet cloth to remove salt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo disassemble a reel for cleaning, the only tool required is a penny. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease note: Exceeding the recommended capacity by over-filling the spool and\/or putting line on too tightly or with too much tension may damage the spool and is not covered under warranty. Please refer to the capacity chart above as your guide. Monofilment line is not recommended for use on Tibor reels. Should you have any questions about backing for your reel, please contact your authorized Tibor Dealer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConversion from Left to Right Hand Retrieve\u003cbr\u003eTibor Reels can be easily converted from Left to Right Hand Retrieve by relocating the clutch dogs.

Innovations like a large arbor spool significantly increase the rate of line and retrieval and give fly fishermen a greater control of reel-smoking species like Bonefish, Permit, Wahoo and Tuna. The impregnated cork disc drag system delivers the strongest smoothes and most reliable performance in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide sits one size above the Everglades in Ted Juracsik’s lineup — designed for 9 through 11 weight rods and holding 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing. It is the appropriate reel for permit and mid-sized tarpon on the flats, for large striped bass and bluefish along the Atlantic coast, for golden dorado in Bolivia, for roosterfish in Baja, for large Atlantic and Pacific salmon, and for any serious Spey or switch rod application where backing capacity and drag reliability are non-negotiable. It is a tank, and it has fought more meaningful fish than almost any other reel in history, contributing to over 950 world records across more than 350 species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide’s drag is an impregnated micrograin cork disc — permanently lubricated, requiring virtually no maintenance under normal use, and delivering zero startup inertia at any pressure setting. Three sealed precision ceramic ball bearings support both the main gear and spool. A hard-coated aluminum main gear wicks heat during long, smoking runs. Three outgoing clicks per revolution give you clear audible feedback with every foot of line that leaves the reel, and they remove in seconds for silent operation. The entire drag system can be disassembled and cleaned with a penny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•    \u003cstrong\u003eImpregnated Micrograin Cork Drag\u003c\/strong\u003e — Permanently lubricated cork disc with virtually zero startup inertia at any drag setting.

It is one of the most popular reel among Keys guides who have fished Tibors for years and trust them with their clients' most important fish. If the Everglades is Tibor's inshore workhorse, the Riptide is the reel you reach for when the fish get bigger, the runs get longer, and the stakes get higher\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Riptide differ from the Tibor Everglades?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide is one size up from the Everglades, covering 9–11 weight rods vs. the Everglades’ 7–9 weight range. The Riptide measures 4.0\" in diameter vs. 3.75\" and 1.65\" wide vs. 0.875\" wide, and weighs 9 oz vs. 8.5 oz. Most critically, the Riptide holds 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing (vs. the Everglades’ 200 yards of 20 lb Micron), which provides meaningfully heavier backing for larger species. The Riptide is the appropriate choice for permit, mid-size tarpon (50–100 lbs), large stripers, and heavy salmon — situations where the Everglades may fall short on backing strength or capacity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Riptide suitable for tarpon?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, for tarpon in the 50–100 lb range, the Riptide on a 10 or 11 weight rod is a proven and widely used combination. The 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing is appropriate for the extended runs tarpon make in open water, and the cork drag handles the sustained pressure of a long fight without heat-related degradation. For large migratory tarpon consistently over 100 lbs, most serious tarpon guides step up to the Tibor Gulfstream (9\/10\/11 wt with greater backing capacity) or the Tibor Pacific (11–15 wt) for maximum insurance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Tibor Riptide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide has several real limitations to weigh honestly. First, at 9 oz it is noticeably heavier than modern machined saltwater reels in its class. Second, like all Tibors, the cork drag is not sealed, requiring thorough rinsing after every saltwater session and periodic inspection in sandy wading environments. Third, the arbor diameter, while large for 1995, is smaller than modern Giga arbor designs — line retrieval per turn is slower than current large-arbor competitors, which can be a disadvantage when a fast fish turns and runs toward the boat. Fourth, at $850–$950+ depending on finish, the Riptide is among the most expensive reels in its class.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter each use, Tibor Reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. Periodically, especially after extensive exposure to saltwater, the line and backing should be removed and wiped down with a wet cloth to remove salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo disassemble a reel for cleaning, the only tool required is a penny. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: Exceeding the recommended capacity by over-filling the spool and\/or putting line on too tightly or with too much tension may damage the spool and is not covered under warranty.

Innovations like a large arbor spool significantly increase the rate of line and retrieval and give fly fishermen a greater control of reel-smoking species like Bonefish, Permit, Wahoo and Tuna. The impregnated cork disc drag system delivers the strongest smoothes and most reliable performance in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide sits one size above the Everglades in Ted Juracsik’s lineup — designed for 9 through 11 weight rods and holding 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing. It is the appropriate reel for permit and mid-sized tarpon on the flats, for large striped bass and bluefish along the Atlantic coast, for golden dorado in Bolivia, for roosterfish in Baja, for large Atlantic and Pacific salmon, and for any serious Spey or switch rod application where backing capacity and drag reliability are non-negotiable. It is a tank, and it has fought more meaningful fish than almost any other reel in history, contributing to over 950 world records across more than 350 species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide’s drag is an impregnated micrograin cork disc — permanently lubricated, requiring virtually no maintenance under normal use, and delivering zero startup inertia at any pressure setting. Three sealed precision ceramic ball bearings support both the main gear and spool. A hard-coated aluminum main gear wicks heat during long, smoking runs. Three outgoing clicks per revolution give you clear audible feedback with every foot of line that leaves the reel, and they remove in seconds for silent operation.

It is one of the most popular reel among Keys guides who have fished Tibors for years and trust them with their clients' most important fish. If the Everglades is Tibor's inshore workhorse, the Riptide is the reel you reach for when the fish get bigger, the runs get longer, and the stakes get higher\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Riptide differ from the Tibor Everglades?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide is one size up from the Everglades, covering 9–11 weight rods vs. the Everglades’ 7–9 weight range. The Riptide measures 4.0\" in diameter vs. 3.75\" and 1.65\" wide vs. 0.875\" wide, and weighs 9 oz vs. 8.5 oz. Most critically, the Riptide holds 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing (vs. the Everglades’ 200 yards of 20 lb Micron), which provides meaningfully heavier backing for larger species. The Riptide is the appropriate choice for permit, mid-size tarpon (50–100 lbs), large stripers, and heavy salmon — situations where the Everglades may fall short on backing strength or capacity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Riptide suitable for tarpon?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, for tarpon in the 50–100 lb range, the Riptide on a 10 or 11 weight rod is a proven and widely used combination. The 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing is appropriate for the extended runs tarpon make in open water, and the cork drag handles the sustained pressure of a long fight without heat-related degradation. For large migratory tarpon consistently over 100 lbs, most serious tarpon guides step up to the Tibor Gulfstream (9\/10\/11 wt with greater backing capacity) or the Tibor Pacific (11–15 wt) for maximum insurance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Tibor Riptide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide has several real limitations to weigh honestly. First, at 9 oz it is noticeably heavier than modern machined saltwater reels in its class. Second, like all Tibors, the cork drag is not sealed, requiring thorough rinsing after every saltwater session and periodic inspection in sandy wading environments. Third, the arbor diameter, while large for 1995, is smaller than modern Giga arbor designs — line retrieval per turn is slower than current large-arbor competitors, which can be a disadvantage when a fast fish turns and runs toward the boat. Fourth, at $850–$950+ depending on finish, the Riptide is among the most expensive reels in its class.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter each use, Tibor Reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. Periodically, especially after extensive exposure to saltwater, the line and backing should be removed and wiped down with a wet cloth to remove salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo disassemble a reel for cleaning, the only tool required is a penny. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: Exceeding the recommended capacity by over-filling the spool and\/or putting line on too tightly or with too much tension may damage the spool and is not covered under warranty. Please refer to the capacity chart above as your guide. Monofilment line is not recommended for use on Tibor reels. Should you have any questions about backing for your reel, please contact your authorized Tibor Dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConversion from Left to Right Hand Retrieve\u003cbr\u003eTibor Reels can be easily converted from Left to Right Hand Retrieve by relocating the clutch dogs.

Known for its sealed drag, exceptional durability, and smooth performance, the Iconic has become one of the most trusted reels in fly fishing. It's equally at home on a Montana trout river, a Great Lakes steelhead stream, a Louisiana marsh, or a Bahamian bonefish flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest strengths of the Iconic lineup is its versatility. The smaller models excel in freshwater applications, while the larger sizes have become go-to choices for permit, tarpon, striped bass, giant trevally, and other powerful gamefish. If you're looking for a reel that can handle years of travel, harsh conditions, and hard-fighting fish, the Hatch Iconic is difficult to beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Hatch Iconic a Good Saltwater Fly Reel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely. The Hatch Iconic was built with saltwater fishing in mind and has become one of the most trusted reels on flats skiffs, tarpon boats, and coastal fisheries around the world. The fully sealed drag system helps protect against salt, sand, and moisture, while the reel's rugged construction is designed to withstand years of hard use. From bonefish and permit to tarpon, striped bass, and giant trevally, the Iconic has proven itself in some of the toughest saltwater environments on the planet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Hatch Iconic Fully Sealed?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eYes. Every Hatch Iconic features a fully sealed drag system designed to keep out water, salt, sand, and other debris. This not only improves reliability in harsh conditions but also reduces maintenance compared to many traditional drag systems. It's one of the primary reasons the Iconic has become such a popular choice among guides and traveling anglers.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Hatch Iconic Have a Reliable Drag System?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe drag system is one of the primary reasons anglers choose Hatch. The Iconic features a fully sealed, multi-disc drag that delivers smooth startup inertia and consistent pressure throughout the fight. That may not sound exciting on paper, but it makes a noticeable difference when a bonefish suddenly changes direction, a tarpon surges boatside, or a steelhead makes a blistering downstream run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sealed design helps protect the system from water, salt, sand, and debris, while the large drag knob allows for quick and precise adjustments on the fly. The result is a drag system that has earned the trust of guides and anglers pursuing everything from trout and steelhead to permit, tarpon, and giant trevally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I Use the Same Hatch Iconic for Freshwater and Saltwater Fishing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely. In fact, that's one of the reasons so many anglers choose the Iconic. Models like the 5+, 7+, and 9+ regularly pull double duty across a wide range of fisheries. It's not uncommon for an angler to fish the same reel for steelhead in the fall, striped bass in the spring, and bonefish on a tropical flats trip. The sealed drag and corrosion-resistant construction make the transition between freshwater and saltwater seamless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Much Maintenance Does the Hatch Iconic Require?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the biggest advantages of the Iconic is how little maintenance it requires. After a day on the water—especially in saltwater—a thorough freshwater rinse is usually all that's needed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Hatch Iconic?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe most obvious drawback is price. The Iconic sits firmly in the premium reel category, making it a significant investment compared to many quality freshwater and saltwater reels on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome anglers also find the Iconic to be slightly heavier than competing reels in the same class. While that added weight contributes to its durability and solid feel, anglers focused on building the lightest possible outfit may prefer a different option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drag system is exceptionally smooth and powerful, but it was designed with reliability and consistency in mind rather than offering the widest drag adjustment range in the industry. For the vast majority of anglers, this is a non-issue, but anglers chasing records or wanting to know exactly what amount of pressure they can apply, there are better options out there such as Mako or the Hardy Fortuna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat said, most of the tradeoffs associated with the Iconic are a direct result of what makes it so popular. Hatch built the reel to be exceptionally durable, dependable, and capable of handling years of hard use in both freshwater and saltwater environments. For anglers looking for a reel they can fish for decades, those tradeoffs are often well worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hatch","offers":[{"title":"4 Plus","offer_id":49856067666234,"sku":"IC4-BAT-LA-A","price":706.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Plus","offer_id":49856067699002,"sku":"IC5-BAT-LA-A","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7 Plus","offer_id":49856067731770,"sku":"IC7-BAT-LA-A","price":916.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/files\/HatchOutdoors_2024CustomBatReel_9Plus_LargeArbor_front.jpg?v=1727747287"},{"product_id":"mako-9550-reel-left-hand-retrieve-10-12wt","title":"Mako 9550 Reel Left-Hand Retrieve","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mako 9550 is a powerhouse, high-end reel designed for targeting the toughest species in the world of fly fishing.

While many premium saltwater reels offer impressive maximum drag numbers, the Mako's reputation was built on something equally important: the ability to apply that pressure smoothly, consistently, and predictably from the very first inch of a fish's run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reel's multidisc, full-contact carbon-fiber drag system with proprietary button technology virtually eliminates startup inertia, allowing anglers to fish lighter tippets confidently or apply heavy pressure without the sudden surges often associated with powerful drag systems. Combined with the calibrated one-turn drag knob, the 9550 gives anglers an exceptional level of control when fighting species that routinely test tackle to its limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes the 9550 particularly appealing to serious tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, permit, and striped bass anglers who understand that landing fish is often less about maximum drag pressure and more about being able to apply exactly the right amount of pressure at exactly the right moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9550 is also an excellent choice for anglers who value durability above all else. It is not the lightest reel on the market, nor was it designed to be. Instead, it was engineered to be one of the toughest, most reliable saltwater reels available, capable of performing season after season in the harshest fishing environments on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes the Mako 9550 Drag System Different?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Mako drag system has earned a near cult-like following among serious saltwater anglers, and for good reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9550 utilizes a multidisc, full-contact carbon-fiber drag system that incorporates Mako's proprietary \"button technology.\" This design virtually eliminates startup inertia, allowing the drag to engage smoothly from the instant a fish begins its run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat smooth startup is especially important when targeting species like tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and permit, where sudden bursts of speed can expose weaknesses in lesser drag systems. The result is exceptional control, consistent pressure, and reduced risk of breaking off fish during those critical first seconds of a fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Is the Mako 9550 Heavier Than Some Competing Reels?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe 9550 is often slightly heavier than comparable reels, but that weight is intentional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMako prioritized strength, rigidity, and durability above all else. The reel is built using premium materials and robust construction methods that allow it to withstand years of abuse in harsh saltwater environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany anglers view the additional weight as a worthwhile tradeoff for the confidence that comes from fishing one of the most durable reels available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9550 Fully Sealed?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eYes. The 9550 features a fully sealed architecture protected by a combination of O-rings and proprietary carbon\/Teflon lip seals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design keeps saltwater, sand, grit, and other contaminants away from the drag system and internal components, helping maintain smooth performance and long-term reliability in some of the most demanding environments on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is the Advantage of the One-Turn Drag Knob?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe large calibrated drag knob allows anglers to access the reel's entire drag range within a single turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes drag adjustments fast, intuitive, and easy to repeat during a fight. When a tarpon suddenly changes direction or a giant trevally heads toward structure, anglers can quickly make meaningful drag changes without fumbling through multiple knob rotations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe indexed calibration marks also provide excellent repeatability from one day or fish to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Mako 9550 Worth the Price?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Mako sits firmly in the premium category, but it was never designed to compete on price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead, the reel was built to offer exceptional durability, one of the smoothest drag systems in fly fishing, and long-term reliability in the harshest saltwater environments. Many anglers who invest in a Mako do so with the expectation that it will be the last reel they need for that application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anglers targeting tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other species that routinely test tackle to its limits, the value proposition becomes much easier to understand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are the Downsides of the Mako 9550?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe most common criticism of the 9550 is its weight. Anglers accustomed to lightweight, aggressively ported reels may initially find the Mako noticeably heavier than competing models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reel is also expensive and unapologetically specialized. Every aspect of its design prioritizes durability, sealing, and drag performance rather than minimizing weight or maximizing visual flair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anglers who spend most of their time trout fishing or making occasional saltwater trips, the 9550 is overkill. For anglers who regularly pursue tarpon, giant trevally, roosterfish, and other demanding gamefish, however, those same characteristics are exactly what have made Mako one of the most respected names in saltwater fly fishing.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mako Reels","offers":[{"title":"Matte Platinum on Black","offer_id":49934685339962,"sku":"9550-1012-M-P-B-LH","price":1490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Black","offer_id":50059034067258,"sku":"9550-1012-M-B-LH","price":1490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Turquoise on Black","offer_id":50059034198330,"sku":"9550-1012-M-T-B-LH","price":1490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/files\/fullsizeoutput_27_1296x_862c358b-6476-46dc-bbee-78b02eccaf74.webp?v=1729614452"},{"product_id":"abel-rove-ported-black-black-saltwater-flies-plate-aluminum-black","title":"Abel ROVE Ported - Black\/Saltwater Flies","description":"\u003cp\u003eAbel's own description of the Rove says it plainly: this is not your delicate, ultralight, classically elegant reel for alpine meadow fishing. They already have that reel. The Rove is your ultra-tough, ultra-reliable, high-capacity adventure reel — the one you take when you're heading somewhere that doesn't have a tackle shop within 300 miles, where the fish are large and the conditions are unforgiving, and where you cannot afford a gear failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum machined entirely in Montrose, Colorado, the Rove's structurally integral frame is engineered to absorb impact. Drop it on the deck of a drift boat, bounce it against river rocks, bake it on a flats skiff in the Seychelles — it doesn't matter. The partially ported, caged frame design eliminates any possibility of line jumping through the spool during a fight, a critical advantage for spey casters working thin running line and for saltwater anglers fighting large fish on heavy backing. The proven cork draw-bar drag system delivers massive stopping power with low startup inertia, and because it's unsealed, it can be flushed, dried, and serviced in minutes in the field without tools or parts. It's the same reliability philosophy as the Shilton SL — deliberate simplicity that outperforms complexity in remote environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in five sizes from the 4\/6 through the 11\/12+, the Rove covers everything from technical trout streams to heavy anadromous fishing, switch and spey rods, inshore saltwater, and offshore big game. The double pawl engagement on all sizes ensures consistent drag onset across the full pressure range, and user-convertible retrieve direction means you can adapt in the field without a trip to a shop. The laser-engraved drag plate — available in freshwater fly, saltwater fly, combination, or blank — rotates as the spool turns for a visual detail that's unmistakably Abel. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•    \u003cstrong\u003eField-Serviceable Cork Draw-Bar Drag\u003c\/strong\u003e — Proven unsealed cork disc drag delivers massive stopping power with low startup inertia.

It's a high-end choice for traveling anglers, guides who need gear that survives hard use across seasons, switch and spey rod enthusiasts who want the extra weight and backing capacity a larger reel provides, and anyone fishing environments where conditions can turn rough without warning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sizes does the Abel Rove come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove is available in five sizes: the 4\/6 (3.67\", 6.9 oz) for trout and lighter freshwater; the 5\/7 (3.98\", 8.2 oz) for larger trout, bass, and light two-handed setups; the 7\/9 (4.23\", 8.5 oz) for steelhead, salmon, bonefish, and redfish; the 9\/11 (4.70\", 10.5 oz) for permit, baby tarpon, and heavy saltwater; and the 11\/12+ (4.97\", 10.8 oz) for large tarpon, giant trevally, and the largest saltwater gamefish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Rove different from Abel's other fly reels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove is Abel's purpose-built adventure reel — designed for durability, high backing capacity, and field serviceability above all else. It uses the proven cork draw-bar drag system (not sealed carbon fiber), a caged frame that prevents line from escaping during fights, and a structurally reinforced machining design engineered to absorb impacts. Compared to the TR, it's heavier and more rugged. Compared to the SDS, it's less specialized for extreme saltwater but more versatile across environments. Abel describes it plainly: this is your beat-me-up, take-anywhere reel — not your delicate alpine meadow reel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Rove drag system sealed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The Rove uses an unsealed cork draw-bar drag, which is a deliberate design choice. Like the Shilton SL's cork system, the open design makes it exceptionally easy to service in the field — flush it with fresh water, dry it, apply a thin layer of neat's-foot oil if needed, and it's ready to fish again. Abel chose field serviceability over sealing so that a remote destination never becomes a disaster because of a drag system you can't fix on the spot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Abel Rove a good choice for switch and spey rods?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — and this is one of the Rove's strongest use cases. Switch and spey rods typically require a reel 1–3 sizes larger than the rod's line weight to achieve proper balance on the extended butt. The Rove 5\/7, for example, balances perfectly on an 11' 6-weight switch rod, while providing the high backing capacity needed for anadromous fish. The caged frame also prevents thin running line from escaping during two-handed casting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Abel Rove?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove's biggest trade-off is weight. At 6.9–10.8 oz depending on size, it's significantly heavier than most modern machined reels in its class — a Nautilus GTR 8\/9, for example, weighs 6.7 oz vs. the Rove 7\/9 at 8.5 oz. For full days of wading and casting, especially on lighter rods, some anglers find the Rove fatiguing. Its unsealed cork drag also requires more regular maintenance than a sealed system — fine in the field, but not as set-and-forget as competitors like the Lamson Litespeed M or Nautilus GTR. Finally, at $745–$1,050+ depending on size and finish, the Rove sits at the top of its tier, and the added weight is a genuine consideration for anglers prioritizing rod balance and arm fatigue over maximum durability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbel® products carry a lifetime warranty that covers the repair or replacement of parts due to defect in material or workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Our warranty is valid for the original owner only, i.e., it is not transferable and is in effect only for products purchased through an Authorized Abel Dealer.

They already have that reel. The Rove is your ultra-tough, ultra-reliable, high-capacity adventure reel — the one you take when you're heading somewhere that doesn't have a tackle shop within 300 miles, where the fish are large and the conditions are unforgiving, and where you cannot afford a gear failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum machined entirely in Montrose, Colorado, the Rove's structurally integral frame is engineered to absorb impact. Drop it on the deck of a drift boat, bounce it against river rocks, bake it on a flats skiff in the Seychelles — it doesn't matter. The partially ported, caged frame design eliminates any possibility of line jumping through the spool during a fight, a critical advantage for spey casters working thin running line and for saltwater anglers fighting large fish on heavy backing. The proven cork draw-bar drag system delivers massive stopping power with low startup inertia, and because it's unsealed, it can be flushed, dried, and serviced in minutes in the field without tools or parts. It's the same reliability philosophy as the Shilton SL — deliberate simplicity that outperforms complexity in remote environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in five sizes from the 4\/6 through the 11\/12+, the Rove covers everything from technical trout streams to heavy anadromous fishing, switch and spey rods, inshore saltwater, and offshore big game. The double pawl engagement on all sizes ensures consistent drag onset across the full pressure range, and user-convertible retrieve direction means you can adapt in the field without a trip to a shop. The laser-engraved drag plate — available in freshwater fly, saltwater fly, combination, or blank — rotates as the spool turns for a visual detail that's unmistakably Abel. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•    \u003cstrong\u003eField-Serviceable Cork Draw-Bar Drag\u003c\/strong\u003e — Proven unsealed cork disc drag delivers massive stopping power with low startup inertia.

It's a high-end choice for traveling anglers, guides who need gear that survives hard use across seasons, switch and spey rod enthusiasts who want the extra weight and backing capacity a larger reel provides, and anyone fishing environments where conditions can turn rough without warning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sizes does the Abel Rove come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove is available in five sizes: the 4\/6 (3.67\", 6.9 oz) for trout and lighter freshwater; the 5\/7 (3.98\", 8.2 oz) for larger trout, bass, and light two-handed setups; the 7\/9 (4.23\", 8.5 oz) for steelhead, salmon, bonefish, and redfish; the 9\/11 (4.70\", 10.5 oz) for permit, baby tarpon, and heavy saltwater; and the 11\/12+ (4.97\", 10.8 oz) for large tarpon, giant trevally, and the largest saltwater gamefish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Rove different from Abel's other fly reels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove is Abel's purpose-built adventure reel — designed for durability, high backing capacity, and field serviceability above all else. It uses the proven cork draw-bar drag system (not sealed carbon fiber), a caged frame that prevents line from escaping during fights, and a structurally reinforced machining design engineered to absorb impacts. Compared to the TR, it's heavier and more rugged. Compared to the SDS, it's less specialized for extreme saltwater but more versatile across environments. Abel describes it plainly: this is your beat-me-up, take-anywhere reel — not your delicate alpine meadow reel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Rove drag system sealed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The Rove uses an unsealed cork draw-bar drag, which is a deliberate design choice. Like the Shilton SL's cork system, the open design makes it exceptionally easy to service in the field — flush it with fresh water, dry it, apply a thin layer of neat's-foot oil if needed, and it's ready to fish again. Abel chose field serviceability over sealing so that a remote destination never becomes a disaster because of a drag system you can't fix on the spot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Abel Rove a good choice for switch and spey rods?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — and this is one of the Rove's strongest use cases. Switch and spey rods typically require a reel 1–3 sizes larger than the rod's line weight to achieve proper balance on the extended butt. The Rove 5\/7, for example, balances perfectly on an 11' 6-weight switch rod, while providing the high backing capacity needed for anadromous fish. The caged frame also prevents thin running line from escaping during two-handed casting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Abel Rove?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rove's biggest trade-off is weight. At 6.9–10.8 oz depending on size, it's significantly heavier than most modern machined reels in its class — a Nautilus GTR 8\/9, for example, weighs 6.7 oz vs. the Rove 7\/9 at 8.5 oz. For full days of wading and casting, especially on lighter rods, some anglers find the Rove fatiguing. Its unsealed cork drag also requires more regular maintenance than a sealed system — fine in the field, but not as set-and-forget as competitors like the Lamson Litespeed M or Nautilus GTR. Finally, at $745–$1,050+ depending on size and finish, the Rove sits at the top of its tier, and the added weight is a genuine consideration for anglers prioritizing rod balance and arm fatigue over maximum durability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbel® products carry a lifetime warranty that covers the repair or replacement of parts due to defect in material or workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Our warranty is valid for the original owner only, i.e., it is not transferable and is in effect only for products purchased through an Authorized Abel Dealer.

Innovations like a large arbor spool significantly increase the rate of line and retrieval and give fly fishermen a greater control of reel-smoking species like Bonefish, Permit, Wahoo and Tuna. The impregnated cork disc drag system delivers the strongest smoothes and most reliable performance in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide sits one size above the Everglades in Ted Juracsik’s lineup — designed for 9 through 11 weight rods and holding 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing. It is the appropriate reel for permit and mid-sized tarpon on the flats, for large striped bass and bluefish along the Atlantic coast, for golden dorado in Bolivia, for roosterfish in Baja, for large Atlantic and Pacific salmon, and for any serious Spey or switch rod application where backing capacity and drag reliability are non-negotiable. It is a tank, and it has fought more meaningful fish than almost any other reel in history, contributing to over 950 world records across more than 350 species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riptide’s drag is an impregnated micrograin cork disc — permanently lubricated, requiring virtually no maintenance under normal use, and delivering zero startup inertia at any pressure setting. Three sealed precision ceramic ball bearings support both the main gear and spool. A hard-coated aluminum main gear wicks heat during long, smoking runs. Three outgoing clicks per revolution give you clear audible feedback with every foot of line that leaves the reel, and they remove in seconds for silent operation. The entire drag system can be disassembled and cleaned with a penny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•    \u003cstrong\u003eImpregnated Micrograin Cork Drag\u003c\/strong\u003e — Permanently lubricated cork disc with virtually zero startup inertia at any drag setting.

It is one of the most popular reel among Keys guides who have fished Tibors for years and trust them with their clients' most important fish. If the Everglades is Tibor's inshore workhorse, the Riptide is the reel you reach for when the fish get bigger, the runs get longer, and the stakes get higher\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Riptide differ from the Tibor Everglades?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide is one size up from the Everglades, covering 9–11 weight rods vs. the Everglades’ 7–9 weight range. The Riptide measures 4.0\" in diameter vs. 3.75\" and 1.65\" wide vs. 0.875\" wide, and weighs 9 oz vs. 8.5 oz. Most critically, the Riptide holds 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing (vs. the Everglades’ 200 yards of 20 lb Micron), which provides meaningfully heavier backing for larger species. The Riptide is the appropriate choice for permit, mid-size tarpon (50–100 lbs), large stripers, and heavy salmon — situations where the Everglades may fall short on backing strength or capacity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Riptide suitable for tarpon?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, for tarpon in the 50–100 lb range, the Riptide on a 10 or 11 weight rod is a proven and widely used combination. The 200 yards of 30 lb Micron backing is appropriate for the extended runs tarpon make in open water, and the cork drag handles the sustained pressure of a long fight without heat-related degradation. For large migratory tarpon consistently over 100 lbs, most serious tarpon guides step up to the Tibor Gulfstream (9\/10\/11 wt with greater backing capacity) or the Tibor Pacific (11–15 wt) for maximum insurance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Tibor Riptide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Riptide has several real limitations to weigh honestly. First, at 9 oz it is noticeably heavier than modern machined saltwater reels in its class. Second, like all Tibors, the cork drag is not sealed, requiring thorough rinsing after every saltwater session and periodic inspection in sandy wading environments. Third, the arbor diameter, while large for 1995, is smaller than modern Giga arbor designs — line retrieval per turn is slower than current large-arbor competitors, which can be a disadvantage when a fast fish turns and runs toward the boat. Fourth, at $850–$950+ depending on finish, the Riptide is among the most expensive reels in its class.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter each use, Tibor Reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. Periodically, especially after extensive exposure to saltwater, the line and backing should be removed and wiped down with a wet cloth to remove salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo disassemble a reel for cleaning, the only tool required is a penny. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: Exceeding the recommended capacity by over-filling the spool and\/or putting line on too tightly or with too much tension may damage the spool and is not covered under warranty.

This is not a reel built around minimizing weight, maximizing versatility, or appealing to the broadest range of anglers. Instead, Shilton focused on creating a reel capable of handling the most demanding saltwater and freshwater gamefish on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a result, the SR may feel like more reel than necessary for anglers who are just getting started in their saltwater fly fishing journey. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilton also prioritizes function more than anything. The SR is built to perform in remote, high-pressure environments where tackle failure is not an option.

It delivers a sealed disc drag, large arbor design, and solid build quality at a price point that makes it genuinely hard to justify spending more until you know exactly what you want from a more expensive reel. It is also an excellent backup reel for traveling anglers who don’t want to risk a $700 reel on a checked bag.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the drag on the Clearwater Cast actually sealed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The Clearwater Cast features a Carbon-to-stainless sealed disc drag — the drag internals are enclosed against water and debris intrusion. This is a meaningful upgrade over older die-cast reels at this price point where sealed drags were uncommon. The sealed system makes it suitable for light saltwater use in the IV size and reduces maintenance requirements for freshwater anglers who fish in rain or wade deep.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a die-cast reel, and how does it compare to a machined reel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA die-cast reel is made by injecting molten aluminum into a mold under pressure, producing the frame shape in one step. A machined reel is carved from solid bar-stock aluminum using CNC mills. Die-casting allows for more complex shapes at lower cost but typically produces a slightly less precise result and heavier wall sections than machining. In practice at the Clearwater's price point, the die-cast process produces a durable, functional reel that performs well — the drag quality and sealed system are the same whether the frame is cast or machined. The trade-off is weight: die-cast reels are typically heavier per diameter than machined reels of similar size.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the Clearwater Cast for saltwater fishing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe IV (7–9 wt) is suitable for light inshore saltwater use — bonefish, redfish, and snook on an 8 or 9 weight rod. The sealed drag resists corrosion, and the powder-coat finish is more durable than standard anodizing for handling saltwater exposure. Thorough rinsing with fresh water after every saltwater session is essential. The Clearwater Cast is not designed for heavy, repeated saltwater use or larger saltwater species — for dedicated saltwater fishing, stepping up to a purpose-built saltwater reel is recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the radiused reel foot do, and why does it matter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe updated radiused (curved) reel foot on the Clearwater Cast has two practical benefits: it fits more securely and evenly in most reel seats, reducing the chance of wobble or slippage on inexpensive reel seats; and it has a rounded leading edge that prevents the leader from kinking when you wrap it around the reel foot for storage between casts or at the end of the day. It’s a small detail that makes a noticeable difference in everyday fishing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the downsides of the Orvis Clearwater Cast?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Clearwater Cast has several honest limitations to understand before buying. First, as a die-cast reel it is heavier than machined reels of comparable diameter — the III at 6.1 oz is notably heavier than the Ross Animas 5\/6 at 4.43 oz or the Galvan Rush Light R-5 LT at 5.2 oz, which can affect rod balance on light freshwater outfits. Second, the drag, while sealed and functional, is not as smooth or refined as the disc drag systems on premium machined reels — it will handle most freshwater trout situations well but lacks the startup inertia performance of higher-end reels. Third, the powder-coat finish, while durable, is susceptible to chipping on hard impacts in a way that anodized aluminum is not. Fourth, the reel is imported, not USA-made. For the price, these are acceptable trade-offs — but anglers who anticipate outgrowing the reel quickly may find it worth investing elsewhere.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orvis","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ II (3 - 5WT)","offer_id":53729097613626,"sku":"3FTK1010","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ III (5 - 7WT)","offer_id":53729097646394,"sku":"3FT61010","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ IV (7 - 9WT)","offer_id":53729097679162,"sku":"3FT71010","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Charcoal \/ II (3 - 5WT)","offer_id":53729097711930,"sku":"3FTK0910","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Charcoal \/ III (5 - 7WT)","offer_id":53729097744698,"sku":"3FT60910","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Charcoal \/ IV (7 - 9WT)","offer_id":53729097777466,"sku":"3FT70910","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Pine \/ II (3 - 5WT)","offer_id":53729097810234,"sku":"3FTK2110","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Pine \/ III (5 - 7WT)","offer_id":53729097843002,"sku":"3FT62110","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Pine \/ IV (7 - 9WT)","offer_id":53729097875770,"sku":"3FT72110","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/files\/3FT610FS26_W.webp?v=1772818816"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/7464\/1466\/collections\/Echo_7.jpg?v=1762991356","url":"https:\/\/www.yellowdogflyfishing.com\/collections\/saltwater-reels.oembed?page=5","provider":"Yellow Dog Flyfishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
