In the world of fly fishing, Iwana stands for the highest quality and timeless design. With their beautiful fly reels, the Canadian brand brings classic fly reels back to the water and adds a touch of elegance to every fishing adventure. The newest member of the reel family is the MINIMA Trout. These handy mid-arbor fly reels are not only functional tools but also small works of art that capture the hearts of minimalist fly fishers worldwide.
A design that breathes history
The first thing that catches the eye about the MINAMI Trout is its iconic look. Inspired by Minami Alps National Park in Japan, where Iwana founders Liang and Shaojie took their first joint fishing trips, the reel combines nostalgic aesthetics with modern materials and precision. Each reel is made from high-quality 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum and has a sandblasted, anodized surface. This combination not only gives the reel its elegant appearance but also makes it extremely resistant to the elements.

Perfection down to the smallest detail
Each MINAMI Trout reel is a unique piece, handcrafted with the highest precision. The flawless workmanship is evident in every edge and every part of the reel. Particularly striking is the closed spool back with a silver-colored fitting and the Iwana logo. Additionally, each reel has an individual identification number that underscores its uniqueness.
An acoustic and tactile delight
The pleasant clicker sound of the MINAMI Trout is not only an acoustic highlight but also a sign of the high quality of the click & pawl braking system. This traditional clicker ensures reliable inhibition of line pull and offers an unparalleled experience when fighting a fish. The noble ebonite handle fits perfectly in the hand, making fishing for trout, grayling, and the like a true pleasure.
Functionality meets elegance
The Iwana MINAMI Trout is available in different sizes and adapts perfectly to bamboo, fiberglass, or modern carbon fiber rods. The raised structure on the outer edge of the frame prevents wear and ensures a long service life. In addition, the spool can be easily removed with a coin, making spool changes easy even under difficult conditions.
