ORVIS HYDROS III FLY REEL : 5-7WT
The re-designed Hydros Fly Reel features a lightweight bar-stock aluminum machined frame and spool, fully sealed drag, and best-in-class line pickup per revolution, buttery-smooth startup inertia and a narrower spool that reduces line stacking. The Hydros reel incorporates an improved seal carbon and stainless drag along with a reduction in weight balance for lighter fly rods. From Freshwater to the Saltwater Flats, the New Orvis Hydros III will match any fishing application and have the stopping power for the larger species in freshwaters. The newly upgraded sealed drag gives the angler a smoother and more powerful reel for protecting light tippet against larger trout and smallmouth.

Great reel that is super light. Feels very solid. I am super happy with the click of the retrieve.

I own the Hydro SL reel and use it regularly for Striper fishing here in New England. It's really durable and maintains smooth drag even after 100's of uses. So, I purchased this reel for fresh water fly fishing. I've only used it once so far but it's as good or better than my saltwater Hydros reel. Highly recommended!
