Our verdict

As a pre-loaded, large arbor reel with a disc drag, it is built to get a new fly angler on the water without buying line and backing separately, provided you confirm the correct weight class first.

Overview

A large arbor fly reel from Maxcatch's ECO line, built with die-cast aluminum construction and a Teflon disc drag on a stainless steel system, sold pre-loaded with backing, weight-forward floating line and leader.

The line is available across 3/4wt, 5/6wt and 7/8wt weight classes, though this listing does not specify which single weight class this particular unit ships as, so confirm the exact rating before ordering to match your rod. The one-way bearing lets you switch the retrieve from left to right hand.

  • Large arbor, all-aluminum die-cast reel body
  • Teflon disc drag on a stainless steel drag system
  • One-way bearing for left/right retrieve conversion
  • Pre-loaded with backing, WF floating line and leader

Who it's for

Beginner to intermediate fly anglers who want a ready-to-fish reel already spooled with line, backing and leader, or anglers wanting an inexpensive backup. Not for anglers who need certainty on which single weight class ships without checking the current listing first.
