Orvis
Fly Fishing Reels

Increasing in popularity from the traditional fly fishing reels are the large arbor fly reels. Although a lot of fly fishing gear hasn't changed much over recent years, fly reel technology has taken a step forward since the introduction of large arbor fly reels. Manufacturing fly reels with large arbors improves the performance of the fly reel and provides some other benefits for the angler.

Large arbor fly fishing reels have many benefits. One of the benefits is that large arbor fly reels have a faster pick up which reduces the chance of slack line getting tangled up. Another advantage is that lines come off large arbor fly reels in large coils preventing tangles and reducing line memory.

Orvis has a fantastic selection of large arbor fly fishing reels. Their Battenkill Large Arbor fly reel received its first industry award. In only it's second month on the market.
