Description

The Evolution LTX Fly Reel is the next generation of Ross's legendary Evolution series. Building upon the success of its predecessor, the LT, this reel is designed to deliver unparalleled performance while maintaining the signature hum and feel that anglers have come to love.

The LTX Reel features a bell-shaped arbor that not only helps in leveling the line during retrieval but also adds strength to the overall rig. This design innovation contributes to smooth and reliable performance in diverse fishing scenarios, from calm rivers to challenging saltwater flats.

  • Machined aluminum is lightweight and sleek: The reel is crafted from durable and lightweight machined aluminum, ensuring both strength and aesthetics.
  • Disc drag is four times stronger than previous versions: The LTX Reel's advanced disc drag system sets a new standard of strength, providing you with unrivaled control and stopping power.
  • Large, bell-shaped arbor self-levels line: The bell-shaped arbor not only levels the line during retrieval but also adds structural integrity to the reel, enhancing overall performance and durability.
  • Oil-impregnated bronze bushing for lasting smoothness: The reel's oil-impregnated bronze bushing ensures consistently smooth operation, allowing for fluid and effortless line management.
