NAUTILUS SPEY
Whether Spey or overhead casting a 2 handed rod, the reel requirements remain the same: large capacity to fit a modest amount of backing under these biggest of lines, and just enough weight to balance a 12 to 15 foot two-handed rod. The Nautilus 12 family of reels was specifically built to address the needs of Spey casters and two-handers.
These large arbor reels deliver extremely fast line pick up that will help you put the fish on the reel in record time. Furthermore, the sealed Nautilus CCF Disc Brake System will prevent water, dirt or sand from contaminating the drag surface, and will protect the most delicate tippets to increase the odds of landing the fish of a lifetime. These reels will deliver consistent and flawless performance and will never hydroplane if submerged, nor glaze over in freezing conditions.
The Spey market has taken the fly fishing world by storm. 5-weight Spey rods still gather a crowd on the river these days, but we are seeing more and more of them every day. See the adjoining chart on to assist you in selecting the right reel for your new spey rod: from a 4/5 line on a FW7 reel for a delicate dry fly presentation on the Salmon River in Idaho to an 11/12/13 on a CCF 12S to swing a large tube fly off a boat on the Alta river in Norway.
“When selecting a reel for your Spey rod it is important to consider backing capacity to allow you to fish your favorite Spey line. These reels will comfortably accommodate any Spey line on the market, even my favorite the Rio PowerSpey, with enough backing capacity to handle long runs on big water.” – Simon Gawesworth
