Fly Reels

 The Nautilus Feather Weight series inherited the most
desirable features of the CCF Nautilus series yet weigh in at almost half
the weight. Built to cater to the needs of the fresh water and light salt
water fly fisher, these reels are at the forefront of large arbor reel
technology, and are a perfect match for today’s high modulus, light weight
fly rods.
A quarter inch larger in diameter than competitors’ equivalent reels in their weight class, these reels deliver faster line retrieval, less line memory and silky smooth drags.
The Nautilus FW reels are designed for outfits covering 2 to 8 weight fresh and light duty salt water outfits. Whether stalking trout with your trusted 2 weight or chasing Bonefish on the flats with your 8 weight, the Nautilus Feather Weight series will perform flawlessly. It’s no wonder that Fly Fishing Team USA selected the Nautilus Feather Weight series reels as their official competition fly reel for the 25th World Fly Fishing Championships held in August 2005 in Sweden.
Nautilus Feather Weight 3+, 5+, 7+ Reels & Spools
New for 2006, these larger capacity Nautilus FW Plus reels were designed to offer increased versatility for the FW series of reels. Whether you wish to house one of today’s specialty lines or whether you simply want to fish an even lighter reel for your newest fly rod, these reels are the answer.
Compact Lightweight Reels
Pairing the Nautilus FW 3Plus reel with a WF5 line will give you a more compact 5 weight setup, yielding increased backing capacity and reduced weight. These reels are ideal for the fly fisher who is looking for a more compact package, whether driven by need for added versatility or just personal preference.
Tactical Requirements
If all you are looking for is additional backing capacity to challenge a bonefish on a 5 weight rod or an Albacore off the beach on your 7 weight schoolie striper rod, the Feather Weight Plus series is for you. For example, the Nautilus FW 5Plus Reel will hold a WF5 line with 200 yards of 20 lb of backing, whereas the FW 7Plus will accommodate 235 yards of 20 lb backing when paired with a WF 7 line.
The Nautilus FW Plus reels were designed to offer an increased range for either backing or line weight allowing you to pair more rods or fishing conditions to your Nautilus FW series of reels. FW Plus spools can be interchanged with regular FW spools for added versatility, allowing you to convert your existing FW 3, 5 or 7 to a FW Plus series.
