If interested, please call me at (916) 317-9428
Orvis advertises this reel for 9wt-10wt rods but you could easily use it on an 8wt as well.
This reel has only been used a few times to test with a rod and is in excellent like new condition. It is a great reel for the money. I purchased it for a trip to Alaska to use with a switch rod but ended up selling the switch rod and buying a new spey rod and reel. The price I am asking is a little more than 50% off what I paid.
This is an excellent deal!
I paid $728 including tax for the following:
1. Orvis Hydros LA V Reel ($280)
A. Orvis Hydros Fly Line - Salmon/Steelhead WF9 Olive ($80)
B. Airflo Ridge Floating Running line - 30lb ($40)
2. Orvis Hydros LA V Spare Spool ($159)
A. Airflo Skagit Switch 510 Grain Shooting Head (mint green) ($55)
B. Orvis Hydros running Line .034 yellow ($60)
This is an excellent setup and I wish I could afford to hold on to it. However, it was replaced by a Nautilus NV G-8 reel and I need to recoup some money!
About the Reel: (from Orvis)
There is not another true large arbor, big-game fly-fishing reel out there that carries this drag system performance at this price. It's unheard of until now. The new Hydros® Reel Series features a sealed drag surface that increases total drag surface by model: The larger the reel, the larger the drag surface and the more resistance available to handle larger fish. Using stacked carbon washers, controlled by a positive click adjustment system, the Hydros can be fine-tuned to handle any fish from a trout to a tuna with sustained and infinitely durable drag pressure.
•HYDROS III-V have a four carbon washer drag system
•Multiplies retrieval rates
•Eliminates line coil
•New Mirage™-style handle
•In titanium
