The Evolution is quite possibly the finest light weight large arbor fly reel series ever manufactured. We find with the exception of the Sage 3100 & 3200 reels for those ultra light #00-#3 weights, the evolutions are our top pick for all other trout and light fly outfits. No detail was overlooked during the two years which was devoted to developing what is arguably the finest mid-priced trout reel on the market today.
Even though the drag design is probably more than one will need for light tackle pursuits, it is guaranteed to handle any species your rod can match. Because a durable drag system is only one component of a perfect reel, great time was also invested into developing a drag system that is precise and sensitive; capable of protecting the lightest tippets, even when battling world-class fish.
The Evolution series was designed to balance with today's modern rods. It is lightweight but built sturdy to ensure a lifetime of flawless performance. The spool has the perfect ratio of width to arbor diameter that provides all the benefits of large arbor technology. The Evolution will surpass the expectations of the most discriminating angler, and as with all Ross Reels, the Evolution is guaranteed for life.
