The die cast Lamson Liquid Fly Reel focuses on the advantages of a pressure-cast process. Structurally you can do things with casting that you can’t machine, such as create full radiused compound curves, a near zero-radius inside corners, and for precise fit you can go back and machine the cast part in critical areas as needed. By importing the cast frame but assembling the reel with the US made CNC-machined drag system here in Boise, Idaho Lamson is able to maintain the quality expected a Lamson reel while offering a surprising price point.
