Built for versatility and durability, the fifth generation Evotec G5 fly reel is designed to perform in any fishing environment. Featuring our advanced Power Matrix Drag System, it delivers ultra-smooth braking power, ensuring effortless control over hard-fighting fish. Precision-machined from lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminium, the Evotec G5 is both rugged and refined. Its large arbor design allows for rapid line retrieval and minimal memory, while the ergonomic handle and integrated leader retainer enhance comfort and efficiency on the water. Whether targeting freshwater trout or battling saltwater species, this reel delivers the strength, speed, and performance needed for any angling challenge. The 5-8 is the first of the lightweight models. The large arbour spool with a quicker retrieve and mid-range capacity makes it ideal for trout, sea-trout, and summer salmon. The 6-8 offers a lightweight frame, but with a deeper spool and greater capacity for light salmon, steelhead, and heavier freshwater lines. The 7-9 is the largest capacity lightweight option. Built for strong fish in larger rivers with deep backing reserves. It’s perfect for switch and light salmon and steelhead set-ups. The 9-13 is the deep-spool version of the heavy duty frame. Maximum capacity for heavy saltwater lines and backing, and built for the toughest fish and fiercest runs.
