I have extra/second spools for my Guru S Blackout -3+, -5+, and Liquid HD 8wt in this with the tool for the Liquid reel. Safe and. Secure if I want to switch techniques while in the wild. Great value and another great Lamson product!
Such a great product and an important part of my fly gear I don’t fish without it. No better way to save your fly and create the least amount of harm to the fish!
This is my 3rd full Lamson rod & reel set up. Plus my previous 3 rods have Lamson reels on them. I fully expected a nice kit for the price but wow was I blown away by the quality of this kit. So much so I immediately ordered a 2nd spool. I have the 8wt for salmon & steelhead, 1 spool set up with RIO WF8F and the second with Rio specialty 8wt streamer sinking tip when I need to get deeper. Thank you Lamson for producing excellent products us Idahoans can be proud to own and brag about!
Balance nice with my 10' 7" 3wt caught some good size trout also give it a try.
Another great product by Lamson! Using it for my 9+ reel system for 10, 11 and 12 wt. saltwater lines. Convenient, well made organizer tool.
Just got the Whiskey 7+ and it looks better than I thought it would with my Helios 1. I am very happy with this reel, smooth drag, great line pick up, and light as a feather. Five star all around. Keep up the great work Lamson.
I traded in an old DCA-4 reel to get the Remix for half price. What a great program! Can’t wait to try it out this spring. I have a Liquid and two Guru II reels and love them. My rating is more for the program and the potential of the Remix.
I’m absolutely excited to give my Centerfire a run in Costa Rica this spring, so no fishing with it quite yet. But, I’ve gotta say that I was pretty stoked to see that it came with a neoprene Lamson reel protector. Nice touch. And thank y’all for the 40% off; makes a massive difference for our Christmas family budget. I’m starting a nice collection of Lamson reels, specifically because of the craftsmanship and performance at a more reasonable price point.
These reels are amazing. Rod holder on truck hood failed at 60mph (don't ask lol) and watched my two rods hit the dirt along side of road. Rods did not survive but both reels were just dusted off then preformed flawlessly the rest of weekend.
Larmson reels are a great deal. These Centerfire reels are super smooth, well anodized, and very durable. I’ve used Lamson for seven years now on long DIY saltwater trips and never really had any problems. my older Lamsons are still fine as well.
Just upgraded my 2 Guru Gen 1’s that are about 15 years old. Never had an issue with the old ones just want the new Blackout for the 2 Velocity rods I just picked up a 4wt paired with a -3+ and a 6wt paired with a -5+. Knowing how good and reliable by gen 2’s were it was a no brainer to get the new version. And they are even better than the old ones. Used the -3+ today on the Velocity 4wt and what a dream set up! I couldn’t be happier. If a rod & reel combo could be sexy this is it!
Tried out my new Velocity 4wt today paired with a new Guru S Blackout. All I can say is wow what a fantastic rod! It’s an absolute slingshot! Cuts through the wind even with a size 20 midge. Put it through its paces today with dry dropper, single fly, double dry. And was an absolute blast to fish with. Can’t wait to try my Velocity 6wt also set up with Guru S Blackout. Plus landed a couple nice rainbows!
Have not used it yet, permit and bonefish this winter. Well made, tight-drag is strong. Will probably use as spey reel as well. Lamson has the best customer service-even if you drop the reel
Recently ordered this reel due to the sale price and quality I have experienced from Lamson products. Had a chance to chase some bones and tarpon recently, and it has proven far superior to my Hydros V saltwater reel. More salt resistant, better sealing, and this thing can stop a train. I had a chance to use a friends Tibor Everglade, this reel felt just as smooth without the weight. Balanced my Scott Wave perfectly. With the consistent drag, I feel confident I can control just about any species in the 8-10wt class. No idea about long term, but if my other Lamson reels are any proof of reliability, this will be my go to for a while.
