Ross Animas Liberty Fly Reel — Made in USA
The Animas has been a guide favorite for as long as anyone around here can remember, and the Liberty edition is the version we hand to folks who want to own a piece of Ross history. Made right down the road in Montrose, the Animas Liberty takes the time-proven features that built the reel's reputation and pairs them with modern machined details and a finish package that sets it apart on the wall and on the water.
A fully redesigned frame and spool show off the cutting-edge manufacturing techniques Ross Reels has developed, delivering a design that is incredibly strong and genuinely beautiful. The Animas runs an ultra-light canvas phenolic handle that gets tackier when wet, and a maintenance-free spool release that keeps the reel ready for any fresh or saltwater outing.
The frame is accented by a machined silhouette of the Colorado mountains in Ross Reels' backyard, the same range we look at every morning. Its uniquely ported design and structural profile are industry firsts. The two-tone drag knob carries an updated aesthetic with a lower profile and increased grip. An improved composite-disc drag system with a stainless steel interface delivers more stopping power in an established Ross design used and loved by more than 80,000 fly anglers around the world.
The Liberty edition is a limited release and is not eligible for promotional pricing.
