Built to pair with 5-weight and 6-weight rods, this reel delivers silky startup inertia, smooth line management, and precise drag control whether you are dropping delicate dry flies or swinging streamers into heavy current lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted in Alnwick, England to exacting standards, this updated Sovereign is machined from high-grade bar stock aluminum with a durable anodized finish designed to endure years on the water. Its powerful self-lubricating disc drag system provides reliable stopping power without demanding constant maintenance. The design features a tool-free selector lever for quick left-to-right hand retrieve changes and an adjustable click mechanism that lets you choose between a classic audible outgoing click and silent operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis preowned reel arrives in superb condition, with only a light scratch on the spool interior (hidden by the backing) preventing it from listing as Like New.
