Sage Thermo Big Game Fly Reel

The Sage Thermo Fly Reel is the ultimate powerhouse of big game fishing reels. The extra sturdy frame and spool are designed to hold up to the rigors of boat fishing where a knock on the gunwale or pounding run through breakers is not unusual. With a hefty large diameter ergonomic handle for maximum grip and control, and large arbor spool for quick pick up and 500+ yards backing capacity, this reel goes the distance, literally. 20 easy-to-see drag settings means the Thermo delivers 0 to 20lbs of drag with unparalleled consistency of drag pressure throughout the entire run of the fish. No drop-off, skipping, or wear out because of overheating on the new, ultra-robust SCS Drag.
