When you enter big game flats fishing and encounter the giants of the sea, uncompromising strength is key. A tarpon for life, a monster trevally or a massive shark can present itself at any time, and for the angler chasing these fish, knowing that the gear can hold up to the fight is paramount. That’s where THERMO comes in – heavy-duty in every sense. Designed to handle even the most bait-smashing, finger-snapping and hard-fighting fish you’ll encounter. With the braking power to keep a Giant Trevally off the reef and the silky smooth action and endurance needed to wear down a blue marlin, THERMO’s robust, heat-dissipating SCS drag, rigid frame and powerful feature set give you a level of confidence you’ve never had before. The new leader in big game fly reels – both in terms of performance and reliability.
THERMO starts with a new, extremely robust SCS drag package, specifically developed and tuned for the most extreme loads. The reel delivers from 0 to 20 lbs of drag pressure with exceptional consistency throughout the entire fish’s run. No dropouts, chop or loss of power due to overheating – THERMO handles the extremes with ease, as the drag effectively dissipates heat via fully sealed, extra-large carbon drag plates. 20 easy-to-read drag settings are located on a large, large-diameter drag wheel that is easy to grip and adjust – even in the heat of the fight. Meanwhile, 39 click-stops allow for fine-tuning for any combination of lead and tip.
The extra-strong frame and spool are designed to withstand the rigors of boat fishing, where hits against the rail or brutal runs through the surf are not uncommon. With a strong, ergonomic handle with a large diameter for maximum control, as well as a large arbor spool for fast line take-up and space for more than 500 yards of backing, THERMO is the ultimate powerhouse among big game fly reels.
