Waterworks Lamson Litespeed Series IV Fly Reel, Size 3.5, 8/9 WT

Description

The Lamson Litespeed Hard Alox Series IV Fly Fishing Reel - the reliable thoroughbred of the Lamson line.For years an iconic ultra-large arbor reel, Litespeed has now been refined for even higher retrieve rate, improved ergonomics, easier line management and less mass. Everything that was achieved in Gen 3 LShas been pushed farther. Narrower drag geometry has translated into a flatter spool surface for less knuckle dragging. A more aggressive drag knob has been made . . . well, more aggressive. Structural refinements such as the curved arbor have made a light reel even lighter, and this curved arbor (which we introduced in 1998) stores backing into a diameter well and keeps working line at a maximum radius to optimize everything we love about large arbor reels. Most notably, the spool/stripping arm geometrythat was introduced on the very earliest Litespeedshas been changed to make it consistent with our newer reels, which do a better job of preventing snags and line damage.
