Superior durability and smooth performance

Meridian Fly Reels partner with specialty machine shops all over the world to build our unique smooth drags and precision-machined parts. This elaborate partnership allows us to design and customize every aspect of our reels.

Meridian Fly Reels feature awesome performance, superb quality, and a beautiful, contemporary aesthetic. Our unique silky smooth drag systems speak for themselves.

Our large arbor designs allow for faster line retrieval and reduced line coiling. More importantly, it creates a consistent drag. The large arbor diameter means the overall diameter from which the line is removed does not decrease significantly so the change in drag resistance is minimized.

Our 4-point fully sealed drag systems are durable, waterproof, self-lubricating, and maintenance-free.
All Meridian Fly Reels offer smooth engagement with consistent, dependable, and repeatable pressure.

We begin with aerospace-grade aluminum, known for its incredible strength-to-weight ratio. We then cold forge and temper the aluminum, adding strength and rigidity while pre-shaping the metal for the frame and spool. After precision machining, the aluminum is anodized for surface protection, corrosion resistance, and durability.
