Fly fishing reels for the real fly fisherman in you.

There are hundreds of different ways to evaluate fly fishing reels. Some folks like a nice light reel, so that their rod can sore swiftly back and forth. Others enjoy a reel that is going to be able to handle all of the action that their rod is going to be seeing. Other people want top of the line models that have adjustable click drag, and will allow them to maximize their ability to catch fish out on the stream. The truth is that a fella can spend a pretty penny on fly fishing reels depending on what he is looking for, and while the guy at your local outdoor store may tell you that there is a "best" fly fishing reel, the truth is the best reels are the ones that catch you the biggest fish.

I know that I have caught more than a few on some pretty old reels, but the newer anodized models tend to call my name every time I find myself wandering past them in the tackle store. Some folks like to have fly fishing reels for every occasion: small stream big river, salt water and so forth. Below is a list of top of the line manufacturers.
