Product information "Ross Reels Evolution R Fly Reel platinum"
The development and manufacture of a fly reel combines art and skill. Just as a perfect loop flying over the water is a thing of beauty created by the caster, the Evolution R is the culmination of the artistic and technical skills of the engineers and machinists at Ross Reels in Colorado/USA. The Evolution R fly reel is not only lightweight, but also incredibly stiff and durable, with a unique geometry that is as functional as it is stylish. The innovative shape of the ultra-large spool is designed so that the line wraps evenly over the surface of the spool when retrieving - something never before seen in a fly reel. The Evolution R's drag is also an industry first: a fully sealed, bonded, proprietary carbon fluoropolymer and stainless steel interface that delivers smooth power in a lightweight, compact package. Starting inertia is virtually non-existent to protect even the most delicate leader tips. The extremely wide adjustment range of the Evolution R's brake allows for incredible braking pressure! This is all controlled by a subtle but distinctive brake knob integrated into the frame, which blends in perfectly with the shape of the reel. The solid handle allows for easy adjustment of settings - even when wearing gloves. Together with the canvas Phenol handle, first introduced by Ross Reels, the functionality of the Evolution R on the water is second to none.
In short, the Evolution R is not a match for all freshwater and saltwater challenges. Yet, thanks to its extremely reliable performance, you'll always be ready for the exceptional fish - whether you're targeting hard-fighting rainbow trout, silver sea trout or fat pike.
