HD = heavy duty. These reels feature a full frame design that captures fly line and prevents thin running lines from slipping between the frame and spool. Important for Euro Nymphing and Spey methods. The also makes the reels incredibly durable.

Liquid S reels feature a fully cast construction that is machined to ensure tight tolerances and high-quality finish. Remix S reels upgrade to a CNC machined and anodized frame for increased durability and share the same cast spool as the Liquid S.

Our reels are sized for one line weight up or down. For example, a -5+ is appropriate 4/5/6wt fly lines. If you are in between sizes staying with the smaller reel is usually a good guideline. If you would prefer to prioritize backing capacity or like a larger arbor, the larger size will work better.

Yes, the Liquid S and Remix S share a spool meaning they are interchangeable as long as they are the same size.

All of our reels are shipped set up for left hand retrieve. They are easily converted to right hand retrieve without the use of tools.
