Technology

Spey Reel - Sage

SPEY Reels use a redesigned, sealed, carbon fiber disc and dual-clicker drag system that ensures dependability and eliminates unwarranted spool rotation.

  • Drag System

    SPEY Reels are built on the foundation of our longstanding Sealed Carbon System (SCS) Drag and improved upon with two key evolutions: newly formulated O-ring seals, and custom dual-clicker.

  • Custom Dual Clicker

    We redesigned the clicker system, adding a second clicker. In addition to increased amplification and improved durability, the dual-clicker design also limits free spool rotation, so fishing distance isn’t inadvertently decreased while casting.

  • One Revolution Drag Knob

    The SPEY Reel’s One Revolution Drag Knob has twenty numbered drag settings with half-detents, allowing for precise, consistent, and replicable drag settings that can be returned to over and over again.
