    ROSS REELS EVOLUTION R SALT 9/10 FLY REEL 


    The award-winning Ross Evolution R Salt Fly Reel is a marvel of engineering, with a power-to-weight ratio never before seen in a saltwater fly reel. At its heart, lies an ultra-smooth, supercharged 16-disc, completely sealed drag system comprised of stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer, producing an incredible 30 pounds of drag pressure – enough to stop an Abrams tank. This exceptional braking power is housed in a lightweight, yet incredibly strong frame and spool that is based on the Evolution R unique design. Evolution R Salt reels are incredibly lightweight, tipping the scales at a mere 8 ounces.

     

    Ross Evolution R Salt reels are CNC machined to exacting tolerances in Montrose, CO from proprietary aircraft grade T-6061 barstock aluminum. These gorgeous reels are then hard anodized for the perfect color and make them impervious to the harshest saltwater conditions. R Salt is also the first fly reel to feature a large, frame-integrated drag knob allowing for easy on-the-fly adjustments with just the palm of your hand during long fights with big fish. The R Salt's geometry is reinforced throughout, yielding an incredibly rugged, yet elegant reel that performs in the most challenging of environments.

     

    Also an industry first, the R Salt features two smaller counterbalances on the spool - this innovative design reduces mass and creates perfect, vibration-free performance when line is being ripped off the spool on long, blistering runs. The large arbor spool includes an innovative line channel for cleanly hiding arbor knots when winding on backing. The Ross Reels signature bell-shaped arbor design also adds strength, while helping to self-level the fly line across the face of the spool as it is retrieved. Evolution R Salt reels are truly a beauty, while also being a ferocious best. Meet the next generation of big-game saltwater fly reels – the Evolution R Salt.


    REEL FEATURES:


    • Fully CNC machined to exacting standards in the USA from proprietary 6061-T6 aluminum alloy
    • Ultra-lightweight, incredibly strong design
    • Powerhouse stacked 16-disc drag system with industry leading power-to-weight ratio
    • Large, frame-integrated drag knob makes easy drag adjustments with the palm of your hand
    • Innovative dual mini counterbalances reduce mass and eliminate vibrations at high rpms
    • All internal components are machined stainless steel, finished with impregnated oil for saltwater durability
    • Bolstered structural rigidity as well as increased backing capacity
    • Type II hard anodized for the perfect balance of hardness and color
    • Quick release spool and easy left-hand to right-hand retrieve conversion
    • Backed by the Ross Lifetime Warranty

    SCIENTIFIC ANGLERS AMPLITUDE SMOOTH GRAND SLAM FLY LINE


    The new Scientific Anglers Amplitude Smooth Fly Lines are, simply put, the highest-performance smooth fly lines in the world. With up to five times less drag and eight times the durability of traditional lines, Amplitude Smooth will change the way you look at saltwater fly line performance. The Amplitude Smooth Grand Slam has a unique taper with a short, aggressive head to load rods quickly, maximizes energy transfer, and enhances the power of modern fast-action saltwater rods. This line will throw tight loops long distance with ease, slicing through the wind, and turn over long leaders and saltwater flies. 

    The Grand Slam line excels at those critical quick second shots, and delivers the fly immediately where you intended. Amplitude Smooth Grand Slam will make any angler a better caster, increasing hookups, and saltwater success. Tarpon. Bonefish. Permit. All in one day. All on one fly line. That’s the idea behind the Amplitude Smooth Grand Slam, a line designed specifically to help you achieve one of angling’s most elusive accomplishments. With a short, powerful head the Grand Slam cuts through wind and turns over crabs, shrimp, and tarpon flies with ease. We’ve got the line. You just need the fish.

    LINE FEATURES:

    • Features the revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive for superior shooting ability and increased durability
    • The perfect line for bonefish, tarpon, and permit on the flats; also great for snook, redfish, and sea trout
    • Overweighted by 3/4 line weight to load rods for powerful distance and quick second shots
    • Short, powerful head throws tight loops, shreds the wind, and fires saltwater flies to their target 
    • Tropi-Core technology remains stiff and slick in tropical environments
