OUR OPINION

These are good strong and reliable fly reels. The traditional, deep spool, design provides good line capacities in a compact space and the simplicity means there's very little to go wrong. The click drag makes a much sweeter, more refined noise on these metal reels than it can on the plastic ones.

All in all, these are nice compact fly reels that should prove reliable in a lifetime of use.
