Reading a grass-bottomed flat on a bright day is hard, no doubt about
it. But, reading your spouse’s reaction when you come clean about your
latest splurge on fly fishing equipment can be damn near impossible!

an unreal price point to help you catch more fish without winding up in
the dog house at home! With an exclusive Rulon drag surface and a tough
high-density graphite composite construction, the Redington Crosswater
Fly Reel 7-8-9wt is ready for action-packed big game fly fishing. Why
spend time worrying about what kind of trouble you'll bring on by
spending too much money on gear? You need your rest if you’re going to
have a chance at that permit tomorrow.
Features of the Redington Crosswater Fly Reel, Black, 7-8-9wt
The Redington Crosswater Fly Reel, 7-8-9wt was designed to get
beginners and budget-conscious anglers on big water and chasing big
game fish without breaking the bank. This reel is perfect for 7-, 8-,
and 9-weight fly rods and lines and at 6 ounces in hand, you probably
won't even know it's on the reel seat! Except, of course, when you hook
up with a screaming bonefish, a skittish permit, or a big bruisin'
Atlantic salmon. Just wait for the exclusive Rulon drag surface to kick
in and your fly line eases from the durable large arbor spool! The
Crosswater 7-8-9 Fly Reel is an excellent entry-level offering for big
game fish seekers. It's also equipped with a quick-change spool,
one-way clutch, and a cool black finish applied with lasting durability
in mind.

Leland on Redington Crosswater Fly Reels
As Redington’s entry-level reels, the members of the Crosswater Series
all offer a way to cover your bases equipment-wise without breaking the
bank. Sealed Rulon drags mean adjustable braking power; large arbor
spool designs translate to low line memory and quick pick-up; graphite
composite construction affords light weight but heavy duty performance
and durability. Perfect for those anglers making their first, and
important, ventures into the sport, Redington Crosswater Fly Reels are
reasonably priced and designed for durability. These reels get you
rigged up, on the water, and in the game.
Leland on Redington
Redington has steadily built an impressive reputation since opening its
operation in 1992. From day one, Redington tasked its business with the
lofty goal of producing high quality, high performance, and high value
fly fishing gear for uncompromising anglers around the world, a goal
many other manufacturing firms have tried to accomplish with little
success. Redington, however, has never strayed from its priorities, and
has met and exceeded its own stated expectations over the years. Today,
Redington is an extremely influential player in the fly fishing game,
outfitting anglers of all levels with well-designed, top-performing,
and incredibly durable fly fishing gear and technical clothing. All
goals, no matter the size or shape, are set to be accomplished, and
Redington's goal of becoming a heavy-hitting producer of
heavier-hitting fly fishing gear and clothing has been accomplished ...
and then some. In a word, Redington products are impressive.

that is easy to change retrieve directions. Superb as both a freshwater
reel and a saltwater reel. Black with fly graphic silk-screening. Two
models available fit a wide range of needs: 4/5/6 & 7/8/9
Redington on Redington Fly Fishing
Founded in 1992, Redington has always brought innovation, performance,
and tremendous value to anglers worldwide. Our roots are now in the
Pacific Northwest where we have access to some of the most wonderful
fishing resources in the world.
Redington is a proud sponsor of Trout Unlimited, Federation of Fly
Fishers and the Take Me Fishing Program. Employees have also been
encouraged to become part of the Recreational Boating and Fishing
Foundation’s Angler’s Legacy, a program in which avid anglers pledge to
take a novice fishing at least once a year.
Recently, Redington joined the fight against Pebble Mine development in
Southwest Alaska's Bristol Bay, an area where the wilds of nature
provide sustenance and life to a region dependant on fisheries. We are
proud to join forces with Trout Unlimited Alaska and Felt Soul Media –
an award winning producer of fly fishing films – to produce a video
that will reveal the beauty and bounty of the pristine Bristol Bay
watershed and give a voice to the commercial, sport and subsistence
fishermen banding together to stop the proposed Pebble Mine.
