Lamson Velocity Hybrid Reel - V1

Perfect for a 0-3 weight line. Light weight easy to maintain. Good looking highly reccomend.

I have other Lamson reels that I am very happy with that utilize the same drag system. I bought this small frame reel for use on a 2wt 7' rod for hiking and backpacking into small streams and its perfect. Although it might be considered a little heavy, that's only because I put it on a super lightweight rod and even then its not noticeable and still balances well. Great drag system but lets be honest, a reel this small will likely go on very lightweight rod and you're not relying on the drag too much in normal conditions but it sure is nice to know its there. Fit and finish are super. The reel actually can hold a surprising amount of line and backing so I would think that you could get away with loading 4wt line on it with minimal backing and it would still balance well with a light 4wt rod. At this price I'm considering getting one of the larger reels as a backup to my current Lamson reel.

Thought I would try a higher end reel. Not the most expensive but a huge step up from what I have been using. Hope to get years of use from this Lamson.

Good balance on a sage slt 386-4.
