Lamson Remix Fly Reel glacier
With the Remix reel, Lamson combines a CNC-machined aluminium housing made in the USA with a spool that is manufactured in an aluminium die-casting process. The brake system also comes from the USA and, just like the reel, is assembled and tested at Lamson by experienced employees. The finished reel is therefore a mix of the low-priced Liquid reel and the top models from Waterworks Lamson. The proven encapsulated Lamson brake system of the Remix does its job absolutely flawlessly and leaves nothing to be desired. Both the starting resistance and the constant braking resistance are convincing. The Remix releases line in tricky situations without any jerking - just as you would expect from a quality fly reel!
The Remix offers an affordable entry into the world of first-class Lamson fly reels. It comes up with highly solid technology and packs this in a unique design, which you will otherwise search in vain for in this price range.

Waterworks is immediately associated by most fly fishermen with the lightweight, reliable reels. Yet the origin of Waterkworks lies in a small, innovative tool. In 1996, Waterworks was founded by two anglers and product designers because they found a better solution to remove the fly from the fish's mouth faster and more gently. Named after their hometown in Idaho, the first Waterworks product, the Ketchum Release Tool, was launched in 1996.
Even before Waterworks was founded, product designers were working with high-quality components. Ryan Harrison honed his skills and knowledge in high-performance cycling, for example. Among other things, Harrison developed suspension technology for Cannondale mountain bikes, so he was already familiar with wheels in the frame.
It was only logical that the founders turned to fly reels after the release tool. Because fly reels were heavy, overly complex and unreliable at the time, so there was work to be done here. With the question in mind of what the perfect fly reel looks like, the ULA was born and represents the foundation of today's high quality fly reels. Together with Lamson, the fly reels, rods and accessories, now enjoy more than two decades of passion, innovation and solid engineering - with no end in sight.
