Cheeky Fishing Spray 400 7-9 Wt. Fly Fishing Reel

The new Spray Fly Reel is the premium reel from Cheeky Fishing®. It has been engineered and rigorously tested for performance and efficiency. With a new and improved Gasket Drag System (GDS), all new light-weight design, and improved features, Spray is up to the task for any fly fishing adventure you throw at it. The GDS is fully-sealed with upgraded top-end power that can stop those monsters in their tracks while not sacrificing Cheeky’s legendarily smooth start-up inertia. The improvements come in the refinement of carbon-fiber disks both in material quality and design.

Spray Reels are fully machined from the highest-grade, aerospace aluminum and feature a newly updated frame and spool design with improved strength plus lighter weight. The improved integrated reel foot design includes a hook keeper slot and gentle curves for kinkless line wrapping. The all-new, anodized aluminum handle and low-profile counterbalance eliminates line catching at the base and is ergonomic for long fights.
