I did not believe it, when a flyfishing friend of mine talked about a $10,000 saltwater flyreel, made of titanium. But it does exist

It is said to be made in Ukraine by Hardys of U.K .
Takes six days to machine a single reel.

Infact if i am have not mistaken i have seen this reel with one of my acquaintance who came from Colorado for a fishing trip to India with 4 of his clients as a guide in march this year. Fished north India for 15 days, In Himachal and Uttranchal.

They were using this with a wt 7 rod.

Its as light as air and is an eye catcher!!!

Cheers !!!

Saw it. Still don't believe it.

nither do I

Wow, 10,000 $. I am not sure i would ever possess such a reel but I am quite sure that if I do, I will always keep it in a locker

woah 10 grand but still i think its an ok price considering the delicasy of a flyreel.
so have you bought one
and also i busted my flyreel (bad story) i am plannin to get a good one for saltwater.
any idea on how good bauer mackenzie superlite is?
nice to know we flyfishers are not a dying breed

They will be if they are happily married and go around buying $10K flyreels

Using aerospace materials for their structural strength is catching on in a lot of areas - including sport fishing. The reason the reel is so expensive is that they probably need to machine that sucker out of a single Ti monoblock.
