Cheeky Fishing Drip 425 7-8 Wt. Fly Fishing Reel

Dripping with style and performance, the Cheeky® Drip Fly Reel is designed to give the angler a premium feature set at an unprecedented value. Drip Fly Reels have a unique 5-sided porting aesthetic on the frame and spool, creating both a strong and very lightweight reel designed for long days on the water. With a fully sealed, stacked disc drag, this reel combines good looks with the tech to back it up.

Drip was developed with a narrower spool width to reduce the tendency of fly lines to stack up asymmetrically when retrieved, and we increased the overall spool diameter to add line retrieval speed.

• CNC machined aerospace aluminum frame designed to reduce weight without sacrificing durability
• Narrow, durable die cast aluminum spool helps prevent line stack up and giant arbor to maximize retrieval rates without compromising line capacity.
