Product Details

We just returned from Patagonia where we landed wild, chrome sea run browns to 20lb and steelhead of equal size. We used everything from 8 weight spey outfits down to 3 weight trout rods. The lightweight Flex & View balanced our choices perfectly.

Both the View and Flex reels were faultless. We had the same confidence with these low cost systems as we would with reels 4-5 times the cost. Using low diameter Dacron we never felt low on backing and we knew the backing couldn't sneak in between the spool and frame.

Close tolerances, thin running lines won't jam between the frame and spool.
Strong drag and smooth mechanism.
Lightweight for light rods.
Solid alloy construction.
Click check sound that isn't too loud, just the right volume and pitch.
Click check sounds when paying out line for accurate fish tracking.
Maintenance free rulon disc drag.
Low start up inertia

Nice looking rel!

I haven't had time to fish with this new reel, yet. But it looks great and appears to be well made with very good tolerances.

Silent and smooth

Love this reel. For the bucks, this is probably the best reel I own. the drag is smooth. I dont know what they put in it but it's as smooth as my Lamsons and Abels. I got it as a backup reel but it's never left my Lake rod since.

8'-6" 6 weight

An all around good nymphing rod. Took the 6 weight, I built, in high water conditions and it performed well. Protected 5x tippett on a wild brown well over 20". For the price a well performing rod. The only improvement I would reccomend, is a stronger butt section. I think it would improve this rod's streamer throwing capabilities. Which is a must with any 6 weight in my opinion.

Go to rod

I have numerous rods in my collection but none as unique as the Clout 9' 5 weight. I have fished with it for a number of years and it is now my "go to" rod for everything from rivers to lakes, big fish and small. The sensitivity of the rod right down into the grip is remarkable.

10wt Saltwater Rod

I built a Flex 10wt for Saltwater and used it on a recent trip to Stuart, FL. I built the rod with a REC Reel Seat, a Winn composite grip, Pac-Bay single foot guides, and used Reddington Behemoth reel filled with Rio Outbound Short Tropical 10 wt. F/I line.

The outfit is well balanced, casts large weighted flies (Clousers) well both in-shore and near-shore situations. We landed snook, jacks and Spanish Mackerel on that trip, and the rod worked great.

Haven’t fished it yet

Looks nice tho
