The Story

Our bestselling Hydros Reel just got even better. We refined this proven favorite with a new end-to-end sealed drag system for added durability, a tool-free retrieval change for quick left- or right-hand conversion, and higher fit and finish quality. It’s the same trusted workhorse anglers love—now even tougher and more user-friendly.

  • Improved, fully sealed drag mechanism
  • Larger arbor for faster line retrieval
  • Highly ergonomic, easy-to-use drag knob
  • Type II anodized aluminum frame and spool
  • Machined aluminum handle
  • Tool-free LH/RH retrieve conversion
  • Imported
