Flylab Focus Fly Reel
Product Description
•••••

- Fully machined frame and spool from 6061 aircraft grade aluminium
- Fully caged frame design to improve balance and prevent thin euro lines from slipping between spool and cage
- Free running disc drag system so reel can be spun to collect line without having to wind the handle
- Low capacity v cut spool design to compensate for low diameter Euro lines
- Low flash matt carbon finish
- Type 2 anodised for durability and corrosion resistance
- One size

FlyLab Focus Reel - Thank you for the great customer service and prompt delivery of my order to the USA. There are a couple of disappointments with the new Focus euro nymph reel: 1) tightening up of the drag negatively impacts the free spin of the reel on a slap retrieve of any loose line. The tighter the drag, the less free spin capability., and 2) the spool does no fit tightly into the frame and therefore easily wobbles when you hold the reel and try and flex the spool within in the frame (more than any reel I have ever held). This is a sure sign of problems in the design and machined tolerances in manufacturing. If this can be corrected, the Fly Lab Focus would be a very good reel.
