Ross Animas Fly Reels

Fully re-engineered for serious anglers, the Ross Animas Fly Reel blends ultramodern machining, a powerful upgraded drag system, and Colorado-built reliability into a lightweight performance reel ready for any freshwater or saltwater mission.

Performance

The latest Animas features a redesigned frame and spool showcasing advanced structural machining that increases rigidity while reducing weight, offering rock-solid stability even under heavy loads. Its ultra-large, bell-shaped arbor delivers rapid line pickup and reduced memory, while the improved composite drag system provides smooth, consistent stopping power across every setting. Built with a maintenance-free spool release and corrosion-resistant components, the Animas excels whether you're swinging streamers, chasing trout, or pushing into salt.

Why We Use It

You feel the difference the moment you palm it—light in the hand, rigid under pressure, smooth through every inch of drag. The Animas gives you total confidence on the water, whether you're fighting trout in tight quarters or ripping line off the reel during a long saltwater run. Its tactile wet-grip phenolic handle, effortless spool release, and trouble-free performance make it a reel you’ll trust trip after trip. Built in Montrose, Colorado with craftsmanship you can see and feel, the Animas stands out as a reel that simply performs every time you put it into the current.
