Shilton CL Series Fly Reel black

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 CL Fly Reel:

The CL was Shilton's first reel series, launched back in 2002 as part of Shilton's classic range. After more than 20 years, the reel is still a popular companion for many freshwater anglers who still rely on the uncompromising performance of the reel. Hence, an absolute evergreen! The classic look in mid-arbor design can be wonderfully combined with many single-handed rods out there and, thanks to the slightly smaller arbor, offers a higher line capacity than many comparable reels. Therefore, the Shilton CL is also particularly popular on light trout spey or switch rods. In the heart of this fine reel lies a powerful carbon drag system. The drag force is generated by the friction of carbon on stainless steel discs. The resistance can therefore be adjusted very finely and also runs extremely smoothly with a low start-up inertia. Perfect, therefore, if you have to rely 100% on the set drag force when fishing with thin leaders. This is also helped by the clicking drag knob, which engages in the respective setting and always provides constant drag translation. The spectrum of the settings, i.e. minimum and maximum drag force, can also be changed manually and perfectly adapted to the individual needs and field of application. The entire reel and spool were machined from the full block 6082 T6 aluminum of the best quality, the filigree ventillation not only looks very chic, but also reduces the overall weight of the reel.

In short, a state-of-the-art reel in a classic guise that pairs perfectly with many fly rods. Not without reason already for over 20 years a fixed component in Shilton's assortment.
