Nautilus NV Fly Reels
$225.00 - $750.00
Nautilus Reels manufactures the best looking and best performing fly fishing reels in the world.Our high end fly reels are the NV (EN-VEE) family of reels. The reels are available in four sizes and are unparalleled in both weight, good looks and performance in the industry. The Nautilus NV 5/6, 6/7, 8/9 and 10/11 are completely impervious to the elements and will outperform any fighting class reel on the market. The NV series feature a larger version of the CCF drag system compared to their Nautilus CCF siblings, and stainless steel components have largely been replaced by ceramics and titanium. The only aspect in which the reel is exceeded in performance is by its slender looks and subtle beauty. Machined entirely out of aircraft grade Aluminum, no details have been omitted: from its low profile drag knob and counterweight to the 100 and 200 yard backing markers on the inside of the spool, these reels will impress you.
All NV reels feature titanium drag shafts, and are loaded with the latest technology in high performance ceramic micro bearings; and since ceramics and titanium are impervious to the elements, you are guaranteed to spend less time worrying and more time fishing. Furthermore, the reels feature a “thrust bearing to thrust bearing” drag design for effortless cranking resistance under any load, ensuring the smoothest line retrieval of any reel on the market. Using titanium and ceramics has allowed us to downsize components, increase the drag surface by over 75%, and still decrease the overall weight without sacrificing the fighting class qualities that are the hallmark of our products.
The Nautilus NV series are the lightest reels in their class, and offer the greatest value in any big game fly reel available in the market today. A reel of a lifetime for a lifetime of trips. These are without a doubt, the best reels money can buy.
A Brand New Fly Line, with a value up to $75, is included in this purchase as well. You decide which style and weight fly line works best for your needs. Choose from Airflo Rio, Scientific Anglers, Cortland or Wulff.
Reels are available in black or brushed silver anodizing unless ordered in a custom color.

Custom Colors
All Nautilus reels can be ordered with custom colored housings and spools. All available colors are pictured below. Anodizing varies from batch to batch, so we encourage our customers to order a spare spool at the time they order the original reel in a custom color in order to ensure a proper match. The cost for a custom colored reel in a single color is an additional $100 per reel. Spare spools are an additional $50 as long as it is the same color.
Delivery time for custom orders varies from 2 to 4 weeks, depending on availability. Please contact us to process a custom reel order.
