Flex Fly Reel
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

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.
