Enhancements include a new rear fixing drag plate for additional drag stability, and the introduction of new wave springs ensures a more consistent drag pressure throughout the intensity of a fish fight. The reel showcases a new and unique Guideline Design Language, characterized by forms that were once deemed impossible to CNC manufacture. The latticed Spool Spoke Facets and Vertical Cross Arms contribute to increased spool structural integrity.
Built with a built-in counterbalance for minimized componentry, the NOVA reel manages to maintain consistent weights despite significant material upgrades on componentry, opting for alloy over polymer. This commitment to innovation and sustainability positions the Nova fly fishing reel as a top-tier choice for anglers seeking both performance and eco-conscious design. NOVA fly reels are available in three sizes; #46 - #79 - #810 and in two different colors - Black and Stardust. Spare spools available for all three models and in both colors.
