Redington Fly Reels | Behemoth, Classic Trout, and Grande

Redington fly reels are known for solid performance, durable construction, and pricing that makes it easier to build a balanced setup. Whether you are fishing small trout water or targeting powerful saltwater species, these three series cover very different jobs on the water.

Redington Classic Trout

The Classic Trout is built for simplicity and balance. It uses a lightweight die cast construction and a dependable click and pawl drag that keeps weight low while protecting light tippet. The large arbor design improves line pickup and reduces line memory, making it a natural fit for 2 through 5 weight trout rods where feel and balance matter most.

Redington Behemoth

The Behemoth is designed around drag power. It uses a large, adjustable carbon fiber drag system that delivers far more stopping force than most reels in its price range. A deep large arbor spool provides strong backing capacity for big trout, steelhead, salmon, and light saltwater species. It is a durable, high value option when you need real drag pressure without moving into premium reel pricing.

Redington Grande

The Grande series is Redington’s fully machined saltwater ready reel. Built from machined aluminum with a sealed carbon fiber drag system, it is designed to handle aggressive fish and harsh environments. Large arbor geometry improves retrieval speed while maintaining generous backing capacity for species like bonefish, permit, striped bass, and other powerful fish that test a reel’s drag.
