Jungle Fish Fly Reels

Jungle habitats such as Guyana and Brazil demand reels of the highest quality, able to stand up to abundant exposure to water, sand, and other elements. Anglers should opt for a fully-sealed, large arbor reel with a smooth drag system. Despite being a freshwater fishery, anglers should utilize reels made for saltwater given the size and strength of some species, the conditions, and to ensure you are able to cast large flies without excessive effort.
