We are thrilled to announce the arrival of the highly anticipated GTS reels! As you unbox
your new shipment, you’ll find that we’ve surpassed the already remarkable NVG series with
significant enhancements:
- Lighter Weight
- Faster Manufacturing Process
- Effortless LH to RH Conversion
- Expanded Drag Adjustment Range
- Sleeker Design (which was no small feat)
But that’s not all—we’ve introduced groundbreaking features never before seen in a reel. For instance, the spool release cap now boasts a 7/8” (22 mm) hex shape—the same size as your car’s lug nuts—so if it ever gets stuck, you can remove it with a standard socket. We’ve also added external backing markers, with spools featuring two crossbars to indicate the optimal backing fill level for your line weight.
Revolutionary Drag Adjustment
GTS 5/6 and 7/8: The first full turn of the drag knob gives you 90% of the usable drag for light tippet dry fly or nymphing. When using heavier tippets for streamers or targeting species like bonefish or baby tarpon, the second turn will provide 90% of the drag you need. And if you need to break off a fish quickly - just half a turn more, and your tippet will snap.
