DOES NOT INCLUDE FLY LINE OR BACKING

This is a previous version of the Orvis Hydros lineup.

The Orvis Hydros reel was designed to remove unnecessary material to further reduce the weight while stiffening the narrow spool, which minimizes line stacking. The drag knob is more ergonomically accessible and comfortable to use. The further refined seal on the sealed drag protects the clutch bearing in the drag mechanism and the radiused reel foot offers kink-free leader protection. The sealed drag with stacked carbon and stainless steel disc washers is still one of the strongest in the industry, with zero start-up inertia. Matte type II anodized finish, standard large arbor size which balances better with lighter-weight fly rod, and yet still offers excellent retrieval rates and less line coiling than standard arbor reels. Refinement and improvement are the hallmarks of quality. Matte black with silver accents, matte silver with charcoal accents.
