Best Drfish Reels in 2026

SPECTRUM C: Multi-purpose fly reels built to cover the entire range of freshwater and saltwater fly fishing applications from Brook Trout to Tarpon.

SCS DRAG SYSTEM: Proprietary high-grade US made carbon easily and repeatedly handles high pressure and quickly dissipates the kinetic energy of that running fish into thermal energy. Tailored configurations allow us to create specific drag systems for each model, size, and fishing application, and the entire system itself is sealed to keep out water, sand, grit, and salt.

ONE REVOLUTION DRAG KNOB: Numbered settings, detents, and audible clicks help you take the guesswork out of setting your preferred control level. The easy switch between decreased tension for stripping and increased pressure for fighting fish makes for more time fishing and less time setting drag.

CLICK SERIES: Sage's CLICK Series reels are a performance and cosmetic upgrade from the original CLICK series. The CLICK aesthetic has been elevated through new hole patterns and a refreshed, modern design that speaks to its lightweight and minimalist yet functional characteristics.

LARGE ARBOR: Our large arbor designs allow for faster line retrieval and reduced line coiling. More importantly, it creates a consistent drag. Our concave arbor design creates a curved surface that increases structural integrity. The result is a drastically improved strength-to-weight ratio, meaning we can put less into the reel so you can get more out of it.

CLICK & PAWL DRAG: The proven performance of the adjustable click and pawl drag design of the original is featured in this new CLICK reel series. The enhanced CLICK features larger arbor diameters creating a larger palming area for fighting fish and quicker line retrieval while maintaining backing capacities.
