Lamson Remix Fly Reels
Available in Glacier and smoke, the Lamson Remix is a hybrid (the ultimate hybrid) CNC-machined and pressure-cast fly fishing reel from bar-stock aluminum. As a result, the Remix delivers both structural rigidity and durability. The spool has a precise fit and finish and is compatible with the Lamson Liquid fly fishing reels. This reel provides high performance along with a touch of sex appeal. The Remix is also available in a 3-pack style with all sizes, 3+ and 9+. The 3-pack comes with one reel and two spare spools, wrapped up nicely in a nylon carrying case.
