The reel makers at Waterworks-Lamson asked themselves, "What can you say about bigger but lighter, lighter but stronger?" And they came to the answer: "Of course you can do it!" Because that's what they've done over and over again when developing new role models. And even if the bar is constantly being raised: improvements, new approaches, new materials and processes that can be used, there are always improvements. An important performance measure of a fly reel is the retrieval speed per gram. Because if you think about it, a fast retrieval speed only has one disadvantage for fishing: the additional weight.
The 6th generation of Litespeed fly reels from Waterworks-Lamson now sets new standards when it comes to the ratio of retrieval speed to weight. This series of rollers is CNC machined, with material artfully distributed along critical load paths, stable and strong, so light you might forget it's even there. But at the same time so beautiful that you remember it. With this fly reel, the reel makers at WWL have combined all their craftsmanship with the most modern technology and the best materials. A perfect balance that will make you smile while fishing.
Litespeed F - The Freshwater versions from the Litespeed series are designed for freshwater fishing and are suitable in our latitudes for trout, grayling, perch, zander and pike. The chassis of the Litespeed F is based on the conical system found in the other WWL reels, with the addition of a click-stop brake button and a unique spring set that provides a linear progression of torque with very fine resolution at the light end of the range generated. This makes the small versions of the Litespeed F ideal for fishing with ultra-fine leaders. The Super Large Arbor architecture of the LSF spool and frame is designed for high retrieval speeds, but is economical and open to promote line drying and of course reduce weight. Exactly as the role developers at WWL imagined. In short: The lightest and at the same time largest diameter that the Litespeed has had to date. In combination with the revised, fresh design and revised seals that offer even more reliable water protection, the latest generation of Litespeed F fly reels is a clear purchase recommendation from us!
