Big Y Standard Fly Reel Reviews

4.9 Rating 12 Reviews
First off I do not write that many reviews, this reel deserved one. I purchased it as a backup for my ross (7 wt setup) on a trip to Alaska, Due to a missing spool for the other reel i ended up using this the entire time. it performed flawlessly on big rainbows, Dollies and silver salmon. 12 days of hard wilderness fishing will test any piece of gear and this reel passed the test! definitely the best value in a fly reel on the market today!

I have abused the crap out this reel for over 2 years and it just keeps performing like its supposed to, I am really developing a strong attachment to it.

Used this reel on my 6 wt rod when I got got to do some fishing while working as a guide in Colorado. Handles very well, easily adjustable, low start up inertia, and protects tippet very well. Would highly recommend if you looking to spend under 100 dollars on a sealed drag and machined aluminum reel.
