Lamson Fly Reels: Experience the Lamson Vanquish Reel
Have you fished this Lamson Fly Reel? Try the Lamson Vanquish Reel
As the name implies, The Waterworks-Lamson created the Vanquish reel with just one thing in mind - total victory. And... as the "form follows function" zealots they are, it all starts with the world's smoothest, and now much larger and more powerful drag system. Delivering twice the torque of their previous salt water design, the Waterworks conical drag generates no stick-slip even at the line-snapping rates required by blue water anglers.
To support this kind of torque, a new, much stiffer frame was created - one that transmits extreme loads with a simple, efficient and graceful structure.
Other innovative features include:
* an integrated foot/frame which, while stronger than a traditional fastened-on foot, also raises the center of mass of the reel, improving casting ease and accuracy
* machined-from-solid, modular stainless stripping arm on V10 & V12
* proprietary Waterworks-Lamson "Hard Alox" finish
* large, ergonomic, self lubricating no-slip handle
* tandem roller clutch transmits higher torque and provides redundany
* fully sealed, zero maintenance drag components
* V12 & V10 spools are offered in both a standard ported closed-faced version and a lighter, open-spoke design
