Sage Spectrum LT Fly Reel

The Spectrum LT fills the high-end freshwater gap in the Spectrum Series. The LT has all the features we love about the Spectrum MAX including a smaller drag system and a lighter spool and frame. The LT comes in a variety of colors and sizes to fit any angler’s needs. A stellar sealed drag system and easy drag adjustability make this one of the highest performing freshwater fly reels on the market. What’s better? The series includes saltwater reel models for anglers who prefer a lighter reel on their Bonefish rod or Permit rod.

Design

Lightweight Performance - The Spectrum LT offers a lightweight version of the Spectrum MAX we know and love. A lighter frame and a paired-down drag system decrease the weight of this reel for better freshwater/trout applications. That being said, the reel also comes in larger versions for saltwater use. The Spectrum LT also comes in a variety of color schemes for style and finesse on the water.

Finish

Hard-Anodized Finish - The Spectrum LT is finished with a hard anodize to protect the surface of the reel from corrosion and other wear and tear. Anodizing is a popular way to finish reels in the fly fishing industry because of its ability to preserve the integrity of the reel without adding unneeded weight.

Materials

Fully Machined 6061-T6 Aluminum - The Spectrum LT, unlike other reels in the Spectrum Series, is fully machined from 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum. After the reel is machined, it’s then cold forged and tempered for increased strength and rigidity. Sage used top of the line materials in the production of this reel and its durability and resistance to dings and scrapes is a testament to that.

Drag

Type - The Spectrum LT functions on a paired-down version of Sage’s SCS (Sealed Carbon System) drag system. The drag is fully sealed and quickly dissipates the kinetic energy from high pressure on the drag system for increased performance and lasting durability.

Materials - The SCS drag system on the Spectrum LT combines proprietary high-grade US-made carbon and detailed configurations to accommodate any angling scenario. These materials are extra-rugged for performance when it counts.

Arbor Size

Large Arbor - The large arbor of the Spectrum LT increases line pickup and helps anglers fight freshwater fish on a single-handed fly rod. The large arbor design of the Spectrum LT also increases retrieval rates and allows anglers to gain more line on any fish from freshwater Trout to saltwater Bonefish and more.

Warranty
