Buttery Smooth Drag

From bonefish to chinook, tarpon to trout, the properties of our premium cork drag give you the stopping power you need with the smoothness you crave for consistent fish fighting pressure fish after fish, year after year. On top of that, our ingeniously simple system virtually eliminates the trip-ruining failures of canister-type drag systems.

Large Arbor For Quick Retrieve

The LX’s large arbor spool increases your retrieval rate so that when that torpedo runs right at you, you’ve got the pick up to stay on it. At the same time, spey anglers have all the capacity they need in the 4.5 inch model to tackle the big rivers where the chrome and the king reign.

Interchangeable Retrieve

Right or left handed… It doesn’t matter. With a simple procedure, you can reel your reel your way.

Custom Laser Engraving

Perfect for retirement gifts, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events or just a personalized look, this add on ensures your reel will stand out. Leave a note during checkout or give us a call and we’ll provide you with more information.

The laser engraving process permanently etches the anodized finish without fully penetrating the coating to ensure the finish’s anti-corrosive properties are maintained. The process produces a white finish—we cannot engrave in colour.

Cork Drag – Silky smooth with all the stopping power you need.

Large Arbor Spool Design – Quick line pick up but with enough capacity for any application

Changeable retrieval direction – Good for right or left handed anglers

Lifetime Warranty – The LX series is built to withstand the test of time so we stand behind it for its lifetime

Made in Canada – Proudly designed, machined, built and tested on Vancouver Island

Unlimited No Questions Asked Warranty
