Lamson Fly Reels & Gear
Lamson has been engineering precision fly reels in Boise, Idaho since 1996. Known for their distinctive open-frame designs and conical drag systems, Lamson reels combine American craftsmanship with bold engineering — every reel is machined, assembled, and tested in-house. The result is a lineup that punches well above its weight class on cost, durability, and pure fishing performance.
From the ultralight Liquid that's become a beginner's favorite to the Guru S that's earned a place on guide boats around the world, Lamson builds reels for every angler at every level. The conical sealed drag is bombproof, the large-arbor designs pick up line fast, and the lifetime warranty backs the entire lineup.
Featured Lamson Lineup
Lamson Liquid — The reel that redefined entry-level. Sealed conical drag, large arbor, and a price point that's hard to beat. The reel most new fly fishers should start with.
Lamson Guru S — The all-purpose workhorse. Smooth sealed drag, machined precision, and the trusted choice of guides from Patagonia to Alaska.
Lamson Speedster S — Built for fast pickup. Oversized arbor recovers line in a hurry — ideal for streamer fishing, salt, and big-water trout.
Lamson Litespeed — Premium freshwater performance. The lightest sealed-drag reel Lamson makes, balanced for high-end trout rods.
Lamson Remix — A click-and-pawl modern classic with a sealed-drag option. Versatile, lightweight, beautifully understated.
