Echo Base Fly Reel - The Compleat Angler

By A Mystery Man Writer

Ross Reels' Evolution R Salt reel was designed with the rigors of fly fishing in the salt in mind. A 16-disk, sealed-drag system incorporating stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer produces 30 pounds of fish-stopping drag pressure. Not one, but two, counterbalances on the spool reduce mass and eliminate vibration. An exceedingly strong frame, made of Anodized II aluminum, performs in the most challenging saltwater environments.

The original Bougle was last produced in 1939, and many collectors believe the reel reached both its functional and aesthetic apex, even though few reels were produced that year. Now, the new 1939 Bougle Heritage Reel pays homage to those rare originals. The new reels feature the time tested Mark II check mechanism and are finished with a dark gun metal anodization, reminiscent of the original. The 1939 Bougle Heritage Reel is available in the traditional trout sizes at 3 and 3 1/4 diameters.
