Fly reels for fishing in fresh and salt water

The right fly reel is an essential part of your equipment – whether you are fishing in fresh or salt water. We offer a wide selection of fly reels that are suitable for both accurate fishing for trout and grayling in the rivers and for challenging fishing for sea trout, bonefish or tarpon in salt water.

Freshwater fly reels - lightweight and precise

When fly fishing in fresh water, the weight and design of the reel are particularly important. Our selection of high-quality fly reels offers you everything you need for fishing for trout, grayling and pike. A large-arbor design ensures quick line pick-up, and the fine adjustment of the drag helps you to maintain full control even with thin tippet diameters.

Saltwater fly reels - sturdy and durable

Saltwater fly reels need to be particularly durable. Models made of anodised aluminium and stainless steel offer maximum protection against corrosion and can withstand even the strongest fish, such as giant trevally or sailfish. Large backing capacities and reliable drag systems are crucial here to successfully master even the toughest fights.

What should you consider when choosing your fly reel?

The choice of the perfect fly reel depends heavily on the area of usage. For freshwater fishing, a light weight and a finely adjustable drag are often crucial. When fishing in salt water, with heavy fly rods on the other hand, maximum durability, a reliable drag system and corrosion resistance are important. Depending on how intensively you go fly fishing, you should also keep an eye on the price-performance ratio. While brands such as HATCH, ORVIS, SHILTON and SAGE are known for their high quality and durability even in salt water, more affordable models for freshwater fishing often also do an excellent job.
