Redington Crosswater IV Fly Reel
Style and function at a price that makes the choice easy. The Crosswater IV is built for the angler getting into fly fishing for the first time, or anyone who needs a durable, efficient refresh to their setup. Its no-nonsense features deliver everything you need and nothing you do not. A durable composite frame and spool, an upgraded carbon disc drag, and a lightweight design come together in a reel that performs well above its price.
The Carbon Disc Drag
The Crosswater IV features a newly upgraded, fully carbon disc-drag system that delivers reliable fish-stopping performance and a smoother startup. A large-notched drag knob makes adjustment quick and easy in the heat of the fight, so you can apply the right pressure exactly when you need it. Whether a trout is making a run or a redfish is pulling for cover, the Crosswater IV brings the brakes.
Lightweight, Durable Construction
The Crosswater IV frame and spool are constructed from durable composite material that prioritizes a lightweight design. Less weight means less casting fatigue over a long day, and a reel that will not weigh you down while traveling or trekking up to the next run. The large arbor design speeds up line retrieve, and the spool changes easily when you want to swap lines. The reel converts between left-hand and right-hand retrieve, and a cloth reel bag is included to keep it protected.
Available Sizes
The Crosswater IV comes in the two most popular sizes in fly fishing. The 4/5/6 freshwater size is perfect for trout, small bass, and panfish. The 7/8/9 all water size is best for sport fish like salmon, large bass, stripers, and redfish. The Crosswater is available as a stand-alone reel or in pre-spooled versions rigged with RIO Mainstream line and dacron backing, ready for action.
