Product information "Loop OPTi Runner fly reel"
The Loop Opti Runner is probably one of the most beautiful reels on the market.
Thanks to its special design and perfect dimensions, the Loop Opti lives up to its name and really fulfils its job OPTIMALLY in many areas. A technical highlight is the carbon fibre disc drag system, which is 100% waterproof and therefore also suitable for fishing in salt water. The drag starts up as smooth as butter, works absolutely jerk-free and has more than enough power, simply brilliant.
The closed reel cage is of course very complex to manufacture, but it more than pays for itself with greater stability and torsional rigidity. It also prevents the leader from slipping out or the fly line from jamming.
Thanks to the very high line retraction (diameter 115mm), the Loop Opti Runner is very fast, which always gives you great control during the fight, e.g. when the fish swims quickly towards you.
The range of use is really huge due to the light weight and capacity, the Loop Opti Runner can be used from #6 up to #10.
Here are some perfectly balanced rod combinations:
#6 from 9.6'
#7 from 9'
#8 - #10 all lengths
