Redington Crosswater Prespooled Fly Reel

This is a pre-spooled reel that comes with Rio Mainstream Fly Line

You may know the Crosswater reel series from Redington as the most affordable reel on the market. It’s true, these reels offer unparalleled performance in their price range. A disc drag, composite frame, and user-friendly ergonomics make the Crosswater a great option for anglers who are just getting into the sport of fly fishing or need a fly reel to use as a backup. This much performance doesn’t get any cheaper.

Design

Affordability Reimagined - You may have balked when you saw the price on the Crosswater reel series. These reels are the most affordable on the market and you’re not going to find a cheaper reel with equal performance anywhere. The reel’s polymer construction, simple yet strong drag system, and structurally sound design make this reel capable and high performing.

Finish

Composite Finish - The Crosswater reels are built in a plastic mold (similar to how aluminum is cast). These molds allow the reel to finished with composite materials that are a lightweight alternative to aluminum. The reel’s finish and construction are two of the major contributing factors to the reel’s affordable price.

Materials

Durable Polymer - The Crosswater is made with what Redington calls a ‘durable Polymer construction’. This Polymer is essentially a plastic composite that’s lightweight and solidly durable on the water. While the materials aren’t as durable as a machined reel, the Polymer construction is a large reason this reel is so lightweight and the most affordable reel on the market.

Drag

Type - The Crosswater features a sealed disc drag system for increased stopping power on the water. The drag system on the Crosswater is sealed for saltwater protection and maintenance-free for user-friendly performance.

Materials - The disc drag system is made of composite materials that are durable and strong. These materials will stand up to weather and wear to keep you reel functioning properly and to keep you on the water.

Arbor Size

Large Arbor - The large arbor of the Crosswater increases line pickup and helps anglers efficiently fight any species. The arbor design holds backing and line well and accommodates enough backing for any angling scenario. Anglers also don’t have to worry about where line lands on the reel when playing a fish because of the efficient arbor design.

Warranty

Redington 1-Year Warranty - As of November 2019, every new reel is covered by a warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. The Crosswater is covered by a 1-Year original owner warranty. The warranty is limited to repair or replacement of the reel only and does not cover direct, indirect, consequential, incidental or any other type of damage.
