New for 2010 is the Evolution LT; an updated version of the original
Evolution series; unquestionably one of the finest fly reels ever
produced. This large arbor fly reel is a machining masterpiece and the
lightest in its class. The Evolution LT is fitted with an aluminum
spool cap, aluminum drag knob and aluminum escapement cover. Our
customers have been asking for more metal in their fly reel and that is
exactly what you are going to get! To keep the weight in check with
these improvements, we have also added ventilation to the spool and the
frame, allowing for the addition of metal components with no measurable
weight increase. This series is designed for those anglers who
appreciate both art and function. The cosmetic innovation and precision
workmanship of the Evolution LT series is only surpassed by its drag
system which is precise and sensitive capable of protecting the
lightest tippets even when battling world-class fish. To guarantee the
level of dependability consumers have come to expect from all Ross
products, the Evolution LT series has been designed with a triple
redundancy drag system, providing three backup systems to ensure
dependability under the most demanding conditions.
