Compleat  Reels 

Home

Loop Reels have always been leading the way.

  They still do.

For more than twenty years they have been producing large arbour reels.
With the new Opti reels they enter a new era.

The reels have an even larger arbour and a narrower, uniquely V-shaped spool. This means a faster retrieve and less coils on your line. When you retrieve the line it automatically falls into place, without any help from your fingers. Of course the Opti reels have our silky smooth and powerful Power Matrix drag system. The drag system, which is totally waterproof, saltwater resistant and with the smoothest available start-up, is also used in the Evotec G3 and Classic-reels.

Welcome to the future. It begins here.


NEW Opti Series
 

NEW Opti Series for 2007 are big as bicycle wheels and spin just as fine. The large arbour allows for a high-speed retrieve when battling high-speed fish. The narrow width of the V-shaped spool makes the line fall into place during the retrieve. Other finesses are the beveled spool and the ergonomic handle that makes the line slide off without getting tangled.

Opti reels come in sizes from Creek to Megaloop. Each model is optimized for a specific fishing.

Creek and DryFly, with a silk smooth drag that handles the thinnest leader. Speedrunner, with an inset handle and extra diameter, for speedsters. Megaloop comes with dual braking plates and a super sturdy construction so as to tackle the really big fish.

    LOOP CLASSIC – Tradition with attitude

    Beneath the stunning looks of the new Classic fly reel is the ultra-modern Power Matrix Drag System. This monstrous new braking system will subdue the strongest of fish in the harshest conditions.

    The completely waterproof drag system benefits from a pronounced 'click' to allow the angler to audibly hear as well as see the fish's movements once hooked. The Classic is completely corrosion resistant and benefits from a new ergonomic handle design with integrated leader retainer on the counterbalance.

    Available in either left or right-hand wind, each reel is individually numbered and presented in a handcrafted leather case. With its old world ‘classic' looks and ultra-modern braking power.


    Evotec HD Family


    Evotec LW Family

    Evotec FW Family

    Evotec G3 - Muscles of quality and function.
    The reel retains its legendary iconic appearance, but with one very important upgrade – the new Power Matrix Drag System. This radical new clutch system is the smoothest most powerful drag system available to the serious fly fisher.

    The G3 also benefits from a new ergonomically designed, non-friction winding handle, which allows the fly line to drop effortlessly from the reel when released into the forward cast and quick line retrieval once the fish is hooked. This reel is your best bet when the fish of a lifetime takes your fly. We guarantee it.

    HD-frame: 8/10 or 9/13-spool.
