Lamson Hyperspeed M8 ( # 7 - # 9 ) Coastal Reel
Product information "Lamson Hyperspeed M8 ( # 7 - # 9 ) Coastal Reel"
Buckle up! The Lamson Hyperspeed M8 sets new standards in terms of retrieval speed per gram. Imagine an 8-weight reel with the diameter of a 12-weight reel, retrieving almost 36 cm of line with each turn of the spool. That’s not just impressive – that’s Hyperspeed!
The radical design of this high-end fly reel maximizes line retrieval like no other reel ever developed by Lamson. Every centimeter of the frame and spool has been carefully CNC-machined, with material optimally distributed along critical stress paths. The result: despite its impressive size, the Hyperspeed M8 offers unparalleled strength, stability, and lightness.
With a diameter of approximately 140 mm, this reel weighs just 189 g, making it perfect for rod classes #7 to #9. So light, you might forget it while fishing – yet so striking that it grabs everyone’s attention. With the Hyperspeed M8 in your hand, you’re ready to take on the fastest fish in the world.
The Hyperspeed M8 was designed for demanding use in tropical waters (e.g., targeting permit, bonefish, and more) as well as for local fishing in cold saltwater and freshwater. It is equipped with Lamson’s innovative hybrid drag system, which incorporates elements of the proven Cobalt drag: a fixed spindle, large heat-dissipating conical surfaces, and a precise click-stop drag knob. Like the popular Cobalt reel, the Hyperspeed M8 is IPX8-certified and waterproof to a depth of 100 feet.
Lamson presents the Hyperspeed M8 as a modern fly reel in a super arbor format – the largest 8-weight super large arbor reel in the extensive product range of this renowned American premium brand. Thanks to its innovative space-frame construction, it offers an extraordinary strength-to-weight ratio and is the first choice for demanding fly anglers who value extremely fast retrieval speeds.
Whether you’re targeting tropical predators or local gamefish, the Hyperspeed M8 keeps you in control during every fight!

About Lamson:
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.
