“As part of a Loop Aktiv initiative, Loop Tackle Design have engineered and designed a limited edition ‘International Year of the Salmon’ Loop Classic reel. Unique in design the reel displays both an inscribed outline of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean on each face. There are only 200 numbered limited edition reels available all in the 7/9 size range.
The LOOP Classic 7/9 is designed for both single handed rods in the #7 – #9 range along with switch rods and double handed rods up to #9.
Beneath the stunning looks of the Classic fly reel is the ultra-modern Power Matrix Drag System. This monstrous braking system will subdue the strongest of fish in the harshest of fishing conditions. The totally waterproof drag system benefits from a pronounced ‘click’ that audibly signals “fish on”. The Classic is completely corrosion resistant and benefits from a new ergonomic handle design with integrated leader retainer on the counterbalance. Available in specific left or right-hand wind, each reel is individually numbered and presented in a handcrafted leather case.”
