Redington Classic Trout Fly Reel

Old School Cool. New School Tool.

The Redington Classic Trout Fly Reel is built for anglers who crave the simple, raw moments that make fly fishing matter—quiet water, tight loops, and that unmistakable high-decibel click when a trout finally eats. Blending traditional styling with modern, reliable construction, the Classic Trout is a lightweight, mid-arbor fly reel designed for everyday trout fishing—perfect for small streams, spring creeks, and drift boat days where feel and simplicity win.

At the heart of the Classic Trout is an adjustable double-clicker drag system that delivers just the right amount of resistance to prevent over-spooling while keeping the experience pure and engaging. It’s not built to be silent—it’s built to sing, letting your buddy downstream know you’re tight to a fish. Add the palmable rim for extra manual control and you’ve got a reel that’s as fun as it is functional.

Best Uses

• Trout streams, spring creeks, tailwaters, and alpine lakes
• Dry fly, nymph, and light streamer fishing for trout and panfish
• Anglers who want a clicker-style trout reel with modern machining and durability

Modern strength in a classic trout reel package

Crafted from CNC-machined, anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, the Classic Trout is tough, corrosion-resistant, and made to last. A large diameter, narrow width, mid-arbor spool helps promote quick line pick-up and clean line management, while the ported design keeps swing weight low for that “less-is-more” feel on lighter trout rods.

Available in 2/3/4 and 4/5/6 sizes, this is an ideal reel for pairing with classic trout rods, modern fast-action sticks, and everything in between.
