Echo Ion Large-Arbor Fly Reel

The ECHO ION reels are the best reel we have ever seen in the sub $100 category. Made from cast aluminum and then machined to provide the benefits of a machined bar stock reel without the high price associated with “fully” machined reels. Maintenance free Rulon disc drag with low start-up resistance and backlash-free, instant drag reaction from the one way roller clutch bearing. Positive click drag knob. Incoming/outgoing audible click. Reels are collated with an impact resistant matte black finish to provide the best looking, long lasting finish. ECHO ION reels have stainless steel internal components and are primarily designed for fresh water use. They can be used in the salt providing extra care is taken to clean and lubricate them after each day on the water.
