    ORVIS HYDROS IV FLY REEL : 7-9WT

    The New 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 IV will match any fishing application and have the stopping power for the larger species in our waters. The newly upgraded sealed drag gives the angler a smoother and more powerful reel for landing steelhead, salmon, bass, bonefish or other 7-9wt fly rod species.

    FEATURES:

    • Super-Large Arbor for quick retrieval rates: Up to 12% increase in line retrieve from previous Hydros Model
    • Sealed Drag- clutch bearing fully sealed inside drag mechanism
    • Nearly 3X stronger drag with zero start-up inertia
    • Narrow Spool for less line stacking
    • Improved tolerances for smooth operation
    • Increased backing capacity
    • Color: Black, Silver, and Matte Green
    • Size: IV (7-9wt)
    • Weight: 6.6oz
    • Diameter: 4"
    • Capacity: 20-lb & WF8: 200 yards

    First off, love ordering from this company, Great prices, service, and shipping. This is a fantastic reel, don't know what could ever be improved on. Does exactly what you'd expect. Great fit and finish. The anodized color is a nice bonus.

    I bought this reel based on its excellent drag system and it has performed up to my standards. A great saltwater reel for the price.

    Quality mid-range reel. While I’m admittedly partial to the discontinued SL version, this is a solid reel and worth every penny.

    using this reel with my 7wt TFO Axiom II-X and man it balances perfect! This reel has great retrieval speed and just feel plain tough! Just got a Hydros V that I will be pairing with my 8WT for yearly Florida trip next motnh! Well worth the money.

    I bought this reel to pair with my 8wt Axiom II-X and they balance incredibly well together. This reel has a super fast retrieval rate and comes with a completely sealed drag system. It’s made to do exactly what I bought it for; to chase redfish in the flats.

    Even better than the first version

    I also own the first version of the hydros sl iv. This was already a great reel but the new one is even better: much lighter and a waterproof drag. Really great reel for the price!

    I love this reel. Big and strong, good brake and plenty of room for line. And it looks good. I have one for a seven wt line and one for an 8 wt. These are my go to winter spawning reels for Taupo and I'm looking forward to using them in a month or two. Hard to go past and a really good price. Highly recommended.
