About Scientific Anglers

Scientific Anglers, now a division of 3-M, was founded in 1945 by avid fly fishermen who knew the sport well and knew what the customer wanted. The founders realized that sometimes anglers want the line to sink and sometimes to float.

Scientific Anglers, now a division of 3-M, was founded in 1945 by avid fly fishermen who knew the sport well and knew what the customer wanted. The founders realized that sometimes anglers want the line to sink and sometimes to float. Old fly lines were made of silk, had limited float capacity, would sink once they were soaked and took a long time to dry out. Scientific Anglers invented the first true floating fly lines, giving the angler more control. Schools of fishermen would crowd the stores to purchase this new product from Scientific Anglers. Other innovative products followed: sinking lines, shooting lines, tapered lines, the first balanced rod and reel system. Today Scientific Anglers is leading the way again with thinner, stronger lines, silicone-coated lines, see-through waterproof fly boxes, line-to-leader "simple twist" connectors and pre-rigged systems. Scientific Anglers has also eliminated the use of lead in sinking lines, helping to protect our waterways. At the epicenter of the fly fishing world today, Scientific Anglers doesn't have to fish for compliments… they caught their limit a long, long time ago. ... Less

    Scientific Anglers Concept 79 LA Disc Fly Fishing Reel
     
    Tremendous Value

    Pros:
    Durable, Easy Casting, Reliable, Smooth Drag System, Smooth Reeling
    Best Uses:
    Fly Fishing
    Describe Yourself:
    Casual Fisher
    Bottom Line:

    Comments:
    As a fisherman of 60 years, I have no patience for fools who covet overpriced gear for status satisfaction. I am reminded of lures that are designed to catch fishermen, not fishes. This reel is a great value, teriffic bang for the buck. It has a large arbor, disc drag, and operates smoothly. You could pay hundreds more dollars for a reel, but I doubt you could get one much better. What more do you want? Caveat: Not good for suckers; you'll need a reel 20 times as expensive for that.
