5.0 out of 5 stars Best bang for your buck fly reel on the market, March 17, 2011

These little fly reels are great. First off, they are cheap, you can get them for under $50 (I got mine for $40). Second, they work great, I bought mine last summer and have caught many cutthroat and rainbow with it. Third, they sell extra spools for about $20 or less. Usually spare spool option is for reels in a higher price range. You can buy one reel for your trout fishing, then just buy extra spools for $20 and load them with different line (floating, intermediate, full sinking), and you never have to worry about changing reels, you just swap out the spool for one loaded with a different style of line. You can save big money by purchasing one of these reels. Quality is far superior to the price. If you want to get into fly fishing, and don't know what to buy to start of with, or if you need to add another reel to your arsenal and don't want to spend a lot of money, but still want a quality item, this is the reel for you.

I own 3 of the Sierra 5/6 reels, and got my boys the 2 of the 4/5 versions. They aren't fancy but they sure are durable. All are 9-10 years old, and still perform like they did the day I bought them. They have fought and landed unknown hundreds of trout throughout the Pacific Northwest. Many of these fish were in the 20-25" range but the reels didn't seem to care! The drag is of the friction type, not clicks, but it works great. It is of the standard arbor design and is slow to retrieve compared to large arbor reels, but still gets the job done.

WORD OF CAUTION: Before buying, inquire as to whether the reel comes in a box or in a plastic clam pack. I say this because I once bought one in a clam pack and found it to be a piece of junk compared to the others. It had a brighter paint scheme and the drag had two setting......free spool and locked up! Seriously, the slightest drag adjustment would lock up the spool. I was never able to use it and returned it immediately. IMO, those reels in boxes are of higher quality of those in clam packs.
