Fly Reel Question...

I have enjoyed watching Antti Guttorm Salmon fishing in several Fly TV videos. I wanted to know what fly reel on the two-handed rod he was using in one of Norway videos. It was an enclosed sided with round center drag wheel and pewter in color. From watching him land some salmon I noticed the reel seemed to be an ant-reverse drag system. I could not make out any the markings on the video. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks and happy holidays.

No idea...

Hector,

I have quickly run through the videos, but have been unable to recognize the reel or even the brand.

Maybe try contacting kanalgratisdotse on YouTube to see if they can help?

Salmon Reel...

Hi Martin,
FYI, I found out the reel I was asking about is a Vision Tank Salmon Reel. I found it in an old Vision Catalog. It came in 3 sizes, but has since been discontinued. I really like the look of that reel and have been scouring the internet to find one. I would like the #3 for 7-9 wt lines.

Regards,
Hector

Long story short

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
