Sold – Ross Animas 5-6 Platinum - REEL1059

The Ross Animas 5/6 is a lightweight, large arbor reel built for anglers who value smooth drag, fast line pickup, and rugged reliability. Designed for 5- and 6-weight setups, it’s ideal for everything from technical dry fly work to streamer fishing—delivering consistent performance across a wide range of freshwater conditions.

Machined in Colorado from 6061-T6 aluminum, the Animas features Ross’s composite-disc drag system with low startup inertia and strong braking power. The unique bell-shaped arbor increases retrieval rate while minimizing line memory, and the open-spoke design keeps weight down without sacrificing strength. Finished with a hard anodize and subtle machining accents, it blends modern engineering with classic Ross styling.

This pre-owned reel is in virtually Like New condition, with just one barely discernable scratch (1mm) on the reel rim. The reel includes the original neoprene case and offers a meaningful savings compared to buying new.

A proven 5/6wt performer with Ross’s signature craftsmanship - ready to fish hard and last a lifetime.
