Waterworks Lamson Liquid Fly Fishing Reel

Waterworks Lamson Liquid Fly Fishing Reel - Liquid courage.  Let’s face it, die-cast reels are intended to be low-cost alternatives to machined reels, right? Imported. Heavier. Easier to damage. Plain Jane. Well . . . not anymore. When creating the Liquid Fly Fishing Reel, Waterworks Lamson focused purely on the virtues and advantages a pressure-cast process can offer. Structurally, you can do things with casting that you can’t machine: Full-radius compound curves, near zero-radius inside corners and, for a precision fit and finish, they even go back and machine the cast part in critical areas—amplifying the best aspects of both worlds. Waterworks Lamson pushed back on other boundaries as well. How much of a reel at this cost can be made here in the US? Quite a lot, as it turns out. It’s a good mix, too. Liquid’s high-quality castings are imported, but the components critical to the drag system are CNC-machined in the US. Liquid reels are assembled in Boise alongside our highest-priced reels. No other reel can boast this much US content and quality oversight.
