Shilton CR Series Fly Reel titanium

Shilton products have been on the market for over two decades! During this time, the thoughtful reels have not only enriched the experiences of many anglers on the water and given them confidence during their adventures, they have also been constantly improved over the years. The origin of these reels: South Africa. A diverse country where fine trout fishing is just a stone's throw away from action-packed saltwater fishing. In between: Bass, Yellowfish, Tigerfish and Co. And as diverse as their origin is the range of applications for these reels. Whether small trout or giant GT, one thing in particular is important to the manufacturer when it comes to their fly reels: reliable performance, no matter what. The company's credo: "We Stop Fish" - and Shilton has also set this goal for the very fastest and most combative fish of these seas. It's not without reason that some of the most prestigious saltwater lodges rely on the uncompromising performance of Shilton reels.

Shilton CR Fly Reel:

The CR is Shilton's most popular reel from their freshwater range and is adorned in a modern Large-Arbor design. This large spool diameter allows for fast retrieve speeds and provides less line memory. The lightweight and timeless design not only pairs visually with many modern fly rods, it also combines a number of functional features that bring you one step closer to your target fish on the water and give you more confidence when fishing. This includes, of course, the heart of the reel: a completely sealed and very powerful carbon drag system. The drag resistance is generated by the friction of carbon on stainless steel discs. The brake can therefore be adjusted very finely and also runs silky smooth. Perfect, therefore, if you have to rely 100% on the set drag setting when fishing with thin leaders. This is also helped by the clicking drag knob, which always provides constant resistance in the respective setting. The spectrum of the drag setting, i.e. minimum and maximum resistance, can also be changed manually and perfectly adapted to the respective area of application. The entire reel and spool were milled from the full block 6082 T6 aluminum of the best quality, the filigree ventilation not only looks very chic, but also reduces the overall weight of the reel.

Although the CR fly reel is part of Shilton's freshwater range, it can also be used in saltwater without hesitation thanks to corrosion-resistant components and the completely sealed drag system. That will make some sea trout hunters and fans of light tropical fly fishing very happy.
