LOOP Fly Reels

My personal LOOP tackle recommendations

(find below comments about the tackle I am/was using during the last year)


LOOP Opti Creek

Like all the other reels of the Opti line this reel is a beauty and a high tech tool with unbeatable design and a very special breaking system that works under all conditions. I like this little reel because it is light and gives a light rod a very nice optical touch. I fish it on the GASS #4 rod and it is filled with a #4 Opti stream fly line.

 



LOOP Opti Dryfly

There is not much to say about this reel. I use it most of the time when fishing for trout and grayling. For those who are aware of high precision craftmanship this reel is maybe the most wanted on the market at the moment. In my opinion it outcompetes all other reels that are on the market at the moment.  I fish it with the Opti Stillwater line.

 

LOOP Opti Runner

The Opti Runner is the perfect choice no matter if you fish for bone fish in the salt or for sea trout in the North. The special design of the reel can keep a large amount of backing and the large arbor protects the fly line by avoiding memory effects. I used the Runner this spring on the Seychelles and it really did a good job with the fast running bone fish. There is also a version with faster retrieve on the market. It is called the Opti Speedrunner and has got the handle a bit closer to the centre to speed up your retrieve when fighting fish that take a lot of backing in one run.

 

 

LOOP Evotec G3

The Loop Evotec G3 works with the Power Matrix carbon break system and the reel has now got an improved reel changing system that enables you to change the spool easier. I used the reel a lot in Kamchatka(RU) and landed many nice fish. It is a very powerful and robust reel that can be fished in extreme conditions without any negatice impact on the breaking system. It will always work perfectly. This reel has done a really great job for me!
