ORVIS HYDROS V FLY REEL : 9-11WT
The New re-designed Hydros Fly Reel features a lightweight bar-stock aluminum machined frame and spool, fully sealed drag, and best-in-class line pickup per revolution, buttery-smooth startup inertia and a narrower spool that reduces line stacking. The Hydros reel incorporates an improved seal carbon and stainless drag along with a reduction in weight balance for lighter fly rods. From Freshwater to the Saltwater Flats, the New Orvis Hydros V will match any fishing application and have the stopping power for the larger species in our waters. The battle tested Hydros V is the perfect salmon, steelhead, bonefish, permit, or smaller tarpon reel for a 9-11wt rod.

When I got this reel is was not smooth and it was a bit noisy but once I put a small amount of grease where the anti-freespool pin is the reel was smooth and quiet. The zero start-up inertia on the drag is great and the drag is super powerful. It balances a 8wt 10ft TFO BVK rod with a heavy streamer line really well.
