Redington Grande Fly Reel

The Grande is Redington’s flagship saltwater fly reel series. This reel combines CNC machining, a durable T-6061 aluminum design, and an extra-strong drag system to build a package that any saltwater angler can appreciate. The reel’s durable design and stunning aesthetics make this one of the best on the market in its price range. If you’re serious about saltwater fly fishing, this could be the reel for you.

Design

Drag-Centered Design - The Grande was built to be the perfect combination of drag strength and durability. Redington uses top-notch materials and finishing to make this reel incredibly resilient while packaging a smooth fully sealed disc drag system into the reel design. Other features like a V-shaped arbor add user-friendly functionality to a reel that’s at the top of its price class in terms of performance.

Finish

CNC Machined, Anodized - The Grande is a fully CNC machined reel, unlike its little brother the Behemoth. Fully machined reels are significantly more durable than die-cast reels and the Grande is made to be rigid and strong. The reel also sports an anodized finish that keeps it safe from dings, scrapes, and saltwater corrosion.

Materials

T-6061 Aluminum - The Grande is built on T-6061 aircraft-grade aluminum that contributes to the reel’s durable construction. Aluminum holds up well to weather and wear. The Grande’s aluminum design helps balance larger saltwater fly rods without being overly heavy.

Drag

Type - The Grande is built on a fully sealed, Super-Torque disc drag system. This drag system is smooth and incredibly powerful for saltwater performance like we’ve never seen from Redington.

Materials - This drag system is built on an incredibly smooth, reliable Carbon Fiber drag. The drag is made with specialized carbon braking discs. The drag is incredibly strong and maintenance-free when used in saltwater or rugged environments.

Arbor Size

Large Arbor - The large arbor of the Grande increases line pickup and helps anglers fight the largest saltwater fish on a single-handed fly rod. The V-shaped spool accommodates enough backing for the strongest saltwater fish and the design helps with line management. Anglers don’t have to worry about where line lands on the reel when playing a fish.

Warranty

Redington Warranty - As of November 2019, every new reel is covered by a warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. The Grande is covered by a lifetime, 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.
