Lightweight Performance. Classic Feel. Built in Colorado.
The Ross Reel Cimarron LT represents the next step forward in one of fly fishing’s most trusted reel families. Fully redesigned from the frame in, the LT delivers a lighter, more refined platform without sacrificing the durability and performance that made the Cimarron name a staple on trout waters across the country.
Engineered and manufactured in Montrose, Colorado, this reel blends modern large arbor efficiency with timeless Ross craftsmanship—giving anglers a dependable, USA-made reel that performs just as well on technical spring creeks as it does in fast-moving freestone rivers.
The Cimarron LT isn’t just lighter—it’s smarter. Aggressive frame porting reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity, resulting in a reel that balances beautifully with today’s lightweight graphite rods. A refined aluminum drag knob and premium in-house anodizing elevate both durability and aesthetics, while the composite disc drag system delivers smooth, consistent pressure across a wide range of fishing scenarios.
From protecting ultra-fine 7X tippet on wary trout to applying pressure on heavier 0X setups in heavy current, this reel adapts seamlessly to the demands of modern freshwater fly fishing.
