"MAXUM" Multiplier Fly Reel

Click on image to enlarge

        Have you ever given any serious thought to the possibility of landing the biggest fish available on Fly Fishing Tackle.  I have now created the reel to do just that.  The "Maxum" is the ultimate in fly reels, big enough and strong enough to be used alongside any Game Reel and tackle the largest of pelagic fish. 

    The reel has outstanding retrieval rates with 3:1 Gearing, which enables the angler to retrieve up to 1 metre (39") of line for every turn of the handle.  No more worrying about the time wasted recovering line after that blistering first run from a tuna in the unmanageable range for fly gear and if the fish decides to run towards the boat, you have the ability to keep the line tight. 

The reel weighs 867 gms (30.5 ozs).  This can be reduced by porting the frame and spool.

Line Capacity is 900 yards of 50lb Bionic Braid plus a Shooting Head System.

Spool Width:- 35mm (1.4")  

Spool Diameter:- 118mm (4.7")

Arbour:-  58mm (1.75")

Reel Diameter:- 125mm (4.9")

RRP Price $1895.95

The reel is available direct from Hayden Reels and at the moment there is a lead time of 4 months for production upon receipt of a 50% deposit.

Also For Use With Two Handed Rods

The design of the "MAXUM" reel ensures viability for use on two handed rods.  The reel has a large arbour, with increased capacity for the longer and thicker lines used, plus the weight of the reel balances the rod/reel system.
