Nautalis' New X-Series Fly Reels
Nautilus Reels
Nautilus raises the bar one more time with this new offering.
Rumors have been flying for a while now about a radical new trout reel from Nautilus. The X-Series reels are certainly radical. Unbelievably light and yet totally ridged. The frame of the reel is a simple X-shaped strut, billet machined and engineered as a torsion box, which makes it incredibly strong in spite of its light weight. It covers just enough of the spool to protect it from damage.
These reels are the perfect compliment for today’s ultra-light weight rods. They have a powerful carbon fiber and Teflon drag system with virtually no startup inertia. Plenty of drag for any species. The X-Series were designed for trout anglers but are available for lines up to 8 weight and all are rated for saltwater.
Nautilus Reels won big again at the 2015 International Fly Tackle Dealer Show in Orlando, Florida, taking the “Best of Show” nods in both the freshwater and saltwater reel categories. The X Series will be available in January in two frame sizes and will accommodate line weights from 3-8wt.
