Nautilus X-Series XS - REEL1409

The Nautilus X-Series XS fly reel delivers lightweight balance, smooth stopping power, and fast line pickup for light-line trout fishing. Sized for 3-weight and 4-weight fly lines, this large arbor fly reel excels on mountain streams, small freestones, and quiet river pools. It balances ultralight fly rods effortlessly while maintaining precise control when playing energetic wild fish on fine tippets.

Machined in the USA from high-grade aluminum, this fly reel features the signature open-frame X-Series geometry that maximizes structural strength while stripping away unnecessary weight. Strong beams extend from the center frame to a wide line guard, protecting the rear spool rim whenever the reel rests on the ground. Inside, the fully sealed SCF-X Teflon and carbon fiber disc drag system provides smooth pressure with low startup inertia, easily adjusted via a generous drag knob that offers positive grip with wet hands. The wide concave arbor speeds up line retrieval while minimizing line memory on floating trout lines.
