Description
Specifically designed to provide optimum drag and frame systems for Spey fishing.
Sage’s longstanding Sealed Carbon System (SCS) Drag gets an upgrade with proprietary O-rings to withstand greater amounts of compression and wear, while a new dual clicker offers increased amplification, improved durability and limits free spool rotation. The frame and spool are optimised too, with full frame design and line guards, a wide palming rim, balanced reel foot location and strategic reel portings.
Colours Available: Black and Granite
In addition to the attention given to the drag, frame, spool, and aesthetic of the new SPEY fly reel, they also spent considerable time calibrating the dimensions and scale of each model in the family. To match the wide range of rods used by Spey anglers around the globe, they landed on three distinct reel sizes – 5/6/7, 6/7/8, and 8/9/10 – which also correspond with the most common types of Spey applications. Each model aligns with the physical rod weights of its given range and provides the appropriate line capacity.
Spey anglers targeting summer-run steelhead, fishing shorter rods, or those interested in the building the lightest-weight system possible will find the 5/6/7 reel size to be their best match. This model is the smallest in the family but is still able to accommodate larger-diameter Skagit and Scandi-style lines.
