Product information "Loop OPTI Speedrunner Limited Edition Fly Reel Mist Silver"
“Colours of the Wild” – Limited Edition Loop OPTI Fly Reel
With the new special edition Colours of the Wild, the Loop OPTI fly reel series celebrates its connection to nature – in the form of three expressive, anodized color variants, inspired by the silent, impressive moments of wild landscapes.
The Colours of the Wild models are highly limited and available in the following sizes: Dryfly, Rapid, Runner, Speedrunner, and Strike.
The Loop Opti Speedrunner is the fastest reel in the entire Opti series – designed with the clear goal of maximizing spool diameter to achieve the absolute highest retrieval speeds. Anglers chasing pike, permit, baby tarpon, or salmon with light double-handed rods will find the Speedrunner the perfect companion.
With its large outer diameter of 131 mm and an inner diameter of 86 mm, it allows extremely fast line retrieval and provides maximum control in any situation. The spool width of 25 mm combines generous capacity (WF8 + 190 m / 30 lbs) with compact, well-balanced handling. Despite its power, the Speedrunner weighs only 258 g, making it surprisingly light in hand.
Like all Opti models, the Speedrunner is equipped with the fully sealed Power Matrix Drag System: a butter-smooth, start-up free carbon drag system with massive power reserves, 100% waterproof and saltwater resistant. Combined with its robust housing and precise workmanship, it offers absolute reliability – whether in fresh or salt water.
The closed reel cage ensures maximum stability, prevents the leader from slipping out, and protects the fly line from getting pinched. Added to this are thoughtful details such as a large-arbor spool with V-profile, Loctite-secured screws, saltwater-proof stainless steel and aluminum components, as well as the easy conversion from left- to right-hand retrieve.
In short: The Loop Opti Speedrunner is the uncompromisingly fast high-performance reel for ambitious fly fishers who demand maximum retrieval speed and absolute control.
