This Orvis Mirage Big Game Fly Reel- Extra Spool Only was conceived and designed from the ground up. Then, built in New England by American craftsmen. It was created for the sole purpose of battling angry fish in any condition, even corrosive saltwater environments. The new Orvis Mirage Big Game Fly Reel features a sealed and maintenance free carbon to stainless steel disc drag system with an aggressive knurled drag knob, which goes from zero to full drag in a single drag knob rotation. The patent pending ball and ramp drag mechanism provides a smooth turning drag that follows a non-linear curve as the drag knob is turned to give smoother adjustments in the fish fighting range. The reel is a super large arbor for increased retrieve rates plus the reduction of aggravating line coil. Machined in the USA from lightweight and strong 6061 T6 aluminum barstock. Ergonomically designed machined aluminum handle. Quick release spool easily converts from left to right-hand retrieve. Military specification type III hard coat anodizing. Titanium shaft adds strength without additional weight. Fully radiused reel foot prevents kinked leaders. Low-profile counterweight won't catch fingers or fly lines. 100% MADE IN THE USA!
