Description
For trout anglers in search of the perfect click pawl fly reel, the IR series is it. When you hook up to a dancing rainbow, the pawl mechanism responds with a sweet song taking your excitement to a whole new level.
Adjustable Click Pawl Drag
Classic and simple our click pawl mechanism is extremely effective nymphing on mountain streams, chasing resident trout or chironomid fishing on still water. If you are as likely to be stripping line in as you are to playing the fish on the reel, a click pawl is the way to go.
Interchangeable Retrieve
Right or left-handed… It doesn’t matter. With a simple procedure, you can reel your reel your way.
Rapid Release Spool
Stream fishing is often very technical with conditions changing by the hour. The IR’s rapid-release spool mechanism allows anglers to keep up by swapping spools with ease eliminating the need for multiple reels.
Custom Laser Engraving
Perfect for retirement gifts, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events or just a personalized look, this add on ensures your reel will stand out. Leave a note during checkout or give us a call and we’ll provide you with more information.
The laser engraving process permanently etches the anodized finish without fully penetrating the coating to ensure the finish’s anti-corrosive properties are maintained. The process produces a white finish—we cannot engrave in colour.
Adjustable Click Pawl Tension – Three different tension settings allow you to vary pressure and prevent line overrun
Rapid Release Spool – A simple lever mechanism disengages the spool so that you can rapidly switch lines.
Changeable retrieval direction – Good for right or left-handed anglers
Machined Out of Aerospace Grade Aluminum – Every Islander reel starts as a solid puck of aluminum before CNC machines turn it into a finished product.
Lifetime Limited Warranty* – The IR series is built to withstand the test of time so we stand behind it for its lifetime
Made in Canada – Proudly designed, machined, built, and tested on Vancouver Island
