Galvan G.E.N Euro Nymph Fly Reel
Galvan reels convince with the latest technology, without losing sight of the traditional and old proven of a fly reel. That's because Galvan believes that in an industry where technology often overshadows tradition, a blend of both is the best option for a high-quality, functional fly reel.
At Galvan G.E.N Euro Nymph fly reel for this reason, of course, a full-frame design was chosen to meet the modern technology of Euro Nymphing 100%. The closed frame of the reel ensures that the thin, monofilament lines cannot escape from the reel or be damaged. Once you start with the Euro Nymphing, you will not want to miss this feature. In addition, of course, the frame also provides greater stability of the reel and is insensitive to shocks and impacts. Another feature for an exceptionally good fly reel for nymph fishing is the large core of the Galvan G.E.N. The high diameter of the spool ensures that the fine monofilament lines do not curl so quickly, but also that the loose line can be picked up extremely quickly once a fish is in the drill. These two features make the G.E.N a perfect fly reel for Euro Nymphing. Those who are after big fish will quickly appreciate the advantage of the fast line pick-up and the sturdy construction. Last but not least, the Galvan G.E.N Euro Nymph fly reel features a 3-pawl brake that can be finely and softly adjusted with the generous Bemsknauf to quickly counter the forces of the fish. Especially when Euro Nymphing, with fine leaders this is a feature of a reel that should not be forgotten.
Also in the design, the G.E.N convinces with a timeless but also modern design. The spool of the fly reel is open and generously milled out. In addition to a high weight savings, Galvan hereby meets exactly the ravages of time and presents a balanced, high-quality fly reel that more than meets the modern fishing.
Technologies
- Maximum Porting
Maximum Porting at Galvan stands for perfection from two worlds! Minimum weight with maximum stability. Galvan attaches great importance to the robustness and stability of a fly reel, but also knows that in today's world this does not always have to be heavy constructions. With the latest CAD technology and precise calculations, any unnecessary weight that does not contribute to the function or stability of the reel is removed! - L.A.D
Large Arbor Design. A fast line pick-up is a crucial point in the drill, when you have to get the slack line onto the reel in the shortest possible time in a controlled manner. At the same time, of course, the reel must not be too big or too heavy, so Galvan always finds a good compromise with precise calculations. - Low-Cof
Galvan's Low-Cof technology is based on the brake system and ensures that the start-up resistance of the brake is extremely gentle during pull-off. This has the ingenious advantage that even the thinnest leaders do not break when a fish flees. - EZ-Grab
The EZ-Grab design of the Galvan reel handles has a concave shape that thickens outward. The advantage of this shape is that when cranking hard, the guide hand cannot slip outward and you keep the upper hand in the drill. - MicroTune
The brake's microTune adjustment system features a single ball bearing that meets small dimples machined into the reel frame to hold the desired brake setting securely in place. The comfortably felt indentations allow for the finest incremental adjustment of the brake and reduce the likelihood of accidental adjustment while fishing. - R-Retrieve
Easily and quickly change from left to right hand without the use of tools. - T2
All of our reels and spools are T2 type anodized with minimal material contact points making them corrosion resistant and saltwater safe. - TruBalance
The weight of the counterweight is perfectly balanced with the weight of the handle to ensure smooth spool retrieval and wobble-free rotation.
