Snowbee XS Salmon/Saltwater follows in proud footsteps

Following in the footsteps of the original Snowbee XS reels of 35 years ago, the Snowbee XS Salmon/Saltwater fly reels are the latest design for the best of saltwater bonefish, jacks, permit, smaller tarpon or bass and pollack.

They are light enough to be the perfect partner to the exceptional new Graphene salt and stillwater rods and ideal when matched with the smaller spey or switch rods for sea trout and salmon.

They are precision CNC machined from aerospace grade A6061-T6 aluminium with milled frame and spool for further weight reduction. Large arbour design, for fast retrieve with consistent drag performance and minimal line memory.

Extra-hard anodised finish for total saltwater and chip resistance. Multi-disc, sealed, saltwater-resistant centre drag system with easy left to right hand conversion and one-way roller clutch bearing provide the ultimate in control too.

All stainless steel internal parts, quick release spool for easy change over and a tippet retaining O-ring on spool counter-balance.

• Diameter: 4ins/102mm

• Weight: 180g (6.3oz)

• Capacity: WF #8 F (Plus 200yds 30lbs braided backing)
