Buying Guide: How To Choose The Best Fly Reels?

Match The Fly Reel To Your Rod and Line Weight

Fly reels are designed to work with specific line weights. You’ll often see a reel labeled something like “5/6” or “7/8”. This simply means the reel is designed for 5–6 weight or 7–8 weight fly lines.

Why this is important:

  • If the reel is too small, it won’t hold enough line or backing.
  • If it’s too big, it will throw off your rod’s balance, making casting harder.

Choose The Right Arbor Size

“Arbor” refers to the center spool of the reel, and it affects how fast the line is retrieved and how much backing it can hold.

Three main types:

  • Standard Arbor: Traditional, smaller arbor. Holds more backing but retrieves the line slowly. Not ideal for large or fast fish.
  • Mid Arbor: A good balance between capacity and retrieval speed. Works well in most freshwater situations.
  • Large Arbor: Faster retrieval, reduces line memory (less coiling). Great for fighting fish that make long runs.

Understand The Drag System

The drag controls how much resistance a fish feels when pulling on the line. A smooth, strong drag is key when fighting powerful fish.

Main types of drag systems:

  • Click-and-Pawl: Basic system, works well for smaller fish like panfish or small trout. You manually control tension with your hand on the spool.
  • Disc Drag: Uses discs (often cork, carbon, or Rulon) to create smooth, adjustable resistance. Great for handling bigger fish and long runs.

Material – Durability And Weight Matter

Fly reels are made from a few different materials. Each has pros and cons:

  • Cast Aluminum: Affordable, but not very durable. If dropped, it can crack. Good for casual anglers or backup reels.
  • Machined Aluminum: Cut from a single block of metal. Very strong and lightweight. More expensive, but built to last for years.
  • Composite/Plastic: Lightweight and cheap. Great for beginners or kids, but not for serious use or big fish.

Freshwater vs. Saltwater Use

Saltwater is harsh on gear due to salt and moisture. If you fish in saltwater, even just once in a while, get a reel built for it.

For saltwater reels, look for:

  • Sealed drag system (keeps sand and salt out)
  • Anodized or corrosion-resistant coating
  • Sturdy construction (to handle stronger fish like redfish or bonefish)

Brand Reputation and Warranty

Stick with well-known brands. They usually offer:

  • Better build quality
  • More consistent performance
  • Excellent customer support
  • Lifetime warranties (a big plus!)

Trusted fly reel brands include:

Budget – What Can You Afford?

Fly reels come in a wide range of prices. Here's what you get at different price points:

  • Under $100: Great for beginners. Usually cast aluminum or composite. Basic drag.
  • $100–$250: Better materials, smoother drags, lighter weight. Good long-term options.
  • $250 and up: Premium reels. Top materials, sealed drag systems, ultra-lightweight, and often lifetime warranties.
