Automatic fly reels



Pfluegher 1195, Perrine automatic # 87

Bronson Royalmatic, Garcia Mitchell 710




Garcia Mitchell 710 automatic fly reel one of the few reels with an extracable spool.

These reels were popular decades ago and are still in use today.
My favorite of the old automatic fly reels is the 1195. It is a real work horse. I have caught panfish, carp, and even norhern pike with this fly reel. In my opinion its only draw back is the limited amount of backing it can hold.
