Shilton SL5 Fly Reel

*Do note that all reels sold do not come with backing. Backing options can be found here. Please indicate retrieval direction (Left/Right) during checkout notes

The SL5 is the reel of choice for many large guiding operations to place on their loan rods due to its “bulletproof” design. This reel has a track record of 20 years in the most remote and hostile environments targeting powerful adversaries like salmon, steelhead, tigerfish, golden dorado, bonefish and permit. The robust design is crafted from solid 6082 T6 high grade bar stock aluminium and features a custom-processed cork drag with enclosed one-way plungers. The SL5 accommodates 7 to 8 weight lines and can be ordered with an incoming and outgoing click or silent outgoing with an incoming click. Colour options are titanium, black, blue, turquoise, purple, red, gold or custom colour.
