HyperRange Sensitivity

720 Degrees of tippet protection

Double the sensitivity of standard systems. One day it’s 2lb tippets for Polish Grayling, the next it’s Springers on the Spey. This drag system lets you fine-tune with precision—twice the range, twice the control, no broken tippets, no broken hearts.

HyperRange Carbon

Sealed carbon disc drag

Engineered with aerospace-grade carbon fibre discs designed for optimal heat dissipation, ensuring consistent performance under pressure. Carbon fibre discs disperse heat generated during long runs, preventing drag fade and maintaining smooth, reliable resistance.

No more tangles

Full frame performance

Full (fully enclosed rim) anodised aerospace aluminium frame prevents thin lines from trapping between the spool and frame. X bracing stops the frame twisting and scraping against the spinning spool under load. Smooth consistent performance time after time.

No more fiddly spool changes

Big hands, cold days

Recessed spool release knob, designed for maximum grip even with large hands on the coldest days. Generous clearance prevents knuckle contact, ensuring seamless operation with the world’s fastest release system.

Small details, big effect

The perfect balance

A lowered fly reel foot improves balance, casting precision, and grip comfort while reducing fatigue. It brings the reel closer to the rod's pivot, enhancing control and sensitivity.

Locking Good!

Really pleased with the reel, looks great and performs well. I had to load up several lines and it hasn’t missed a beat. There is loads of room on the spools for larger lines or extra backing if you prefer. The real winner is the cassette change, the cassettes on my old reel used to get stuck in the winter, or wear loose and slip. Been out with the lock reel once and found changing lines a breeze, which encourages you to change method when needed instead of sticking with something that isn’t working.

This is a well made reel with no play on the spool & tight tolerances so no chance of fine lines & leaders getting jammed between spool & frame. The drag is incredibly smooth & covers a great range of settings, pus the drag knob is nice & large. Spool change is incredibly easy & the concept of being able to buy lines plus backing preloaded on spools is very clever & convenient, (no knots or messing about). For the Stillwater flyfisher this has to be one of the best reels available with the easily interchangeable cassettes. The only reason I’ve only given 4*s rather than 5 is that it isn’t the lightest of reels & virtually all of my fishing is done with 1 & 2 weight lines & personally I love semi-automatic reels for such light-line fishing.

So far so good!

Used the reel for the first time and really like how it feels! I’d certainly recommend the reel for its ease of use, especially with the new Kevlar lines, which also perform well.

It looks really good I like the clutch easy to use and the way I can change the spools. I have shown it to a few friends and they are impressed with the reel and system. If I have one criticism it appears to be a little heavy but I cannot really comment on this untill I have been fishing with it.
