Description:
Scientific Anglers System 2 Large Arbor Fly Reel
System 2 LA reels are true large-arbor reels in which the reel diameter - not just the spool - is also larger to produce faster retrieves. We've also added a wider spool, the proven System 2 drag, and advanced barstock-machined construction to bring a higher level of large-arbor performance.
System 2 LA reel models 678 and 890 are built with a highly polished, heavy-duty stainless steel disc drag system featuring carbon-fiber drag pads. It's the same proven drag system featured on all Scientific Anglers System 2 reels - among the best-selling and most-trusted reels in fly fishing.
