COTW: Opti Reel

A large arbour icon, reimagined in three bold, nature-inspired finishes.

The latest chapter in our storied Opti series blends wild expression with the signature precision and performance that you’ve come to expect from the standard-bearer in modern fly reel design.

Beneath its striking exterior lies the proven performance of the Opti series. The iconic large arbor V-shaped spool offers rapid retrieval, reduced line memory, and smooth handling in any water. The fully waterproof Power Matrix Drag System, sealed with marine-grade components and carbon discs, delivers smooth, powerful resistance with virtually no start-up inertia.

Available in three unique colour schemes and five sizes, the Colours of the Wild Opti is more than just a reel - it’s a statement on the water.

The Rapid is versatile reel with extra capacity for a broad range of freshwater fishing. Our large arbour design and fast line retrieval helps you stay in control

the large arbour icon.

In the early ’80s, we redefined fly reel design with the world’s first large-arbour concept. The Opti is the direct descendant of that breakthrough - an industry-shaping original refined through decades of innovation.
