Lamson Remix S Fly Reel Kit smoke
The ultimate fusion of two worlds, or rather two manufacturing processes, is offered by the new Remix-S Fly Reel from Lamson. The second generation of Lamson's Remix fly reel not only brings an optical update but also offers several other advantages: The Lamson have a larger spool diameter and spool core than its popular predecessor. This results in a faster retrieval speed of the fly line and greater practical comfort. The Large Arbor spool design has been adjusted to allow for clean winding, and the drag knob has been enlarged and made more grippable for better control during the fight.
With the Remix-S reel, Waterworks-Lamson combines a CNC-machined aluminum housing made in the USA with a spool manufactured through the aluminum die-casting process. The result is a robust yet extremely lightweight reel, as the cast spool significantly reduces weight, while the brake system sits in a secure aluminum cage, protecting the reel from minor impacts and bumps. The brake system, also from the USA, is assembled and tested by experienced Lamson staff, just like the reel itself. The finished reel is a mix of the budget-friendly Liquid reel and Lamson's top models. This is evident in another aspect, as the Liquid-S fly reel spool is compatible with the Remix-S reel cage. The proven enclosed Lamson drag system of the Remix performs flawlessly, meeting all expectations. Both the startup resistance and constant brake resistance are impressive. The Remix releases the line smoothly in critical situations without any jerking, as one would expect from a quality fly reel!
The Remix S fly reel set includes two additional spare spools of the popular reel and a large bag. Particularly practical and inexpensive if you are fishing for one type of fish with different guides and want to change quickly, or if you are fishing different rod classes with one reel. The Lamson Remix S offers "Made in USA quality" at a very attractive price - a very reliable quality fly reel for beginners and price-conscious fly fishermen!

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.
