This strong, lightweight, ambidextrous reel with instant anti-reverse and a large arbour is perfect for beginners and those who want a spare reel. The largest #7/8 size is supplied in a padded carry case and comes with a spare spool.

Strong & Light

Made from a lightweight, reinforced Polymeric body and spool, the Sigma offers unrivalled lightness and specification at this price point. It balances modern lightweight fly rods perfectly and won’t break under pressure like a lot of other reels at this price.

Large Arbour Spool

The Sigma has a large arbour spool, which is popular for modern reels. It gives you a faster retrieve and, because there line doesn’t wind so tightly, less kinks. This grooved spool lets you load 90 yards of line and even switches out at the push of a button.

Adjustable & Easy to Use

Thanks in part to the large arbour, the drag on the Sigma is very smooth. This disc drag system is also finely adjustable. For even more customisation, the handle is easy to switch. That makes the Sigma ambidextrous, so you can change it from a right to left hand wind.

Instant Anti-Reverse

Surprisingly at this low price, the Sigma has a dedicated anti-reverse bearing. This one way roller bearing spins in one direction, but locks when spun the opposite way. This prevents back play, which is slack in the fishing line that lets fish escape before the hook sets in their mouth.
