Orvis Fly Reel Series
Orvis Hydros Fly Reel
The Hydros is Orvis's flagship reel — a fully sealed, large-arbor disc drag reel built for serious freshwater and saltwater use. Smooth from the first click of the drag to the last yard of backing, the Hydros pairs perfectly with the Helios and Recon rod series and is the reel we reach for when the fish are big and the conditions are demanding.
Orvis Ratio Fly Reel
The Ratio is Orvis's premium large-arbor reel, engineered for maximum retrieve speed and a clean, modern aesthetic. A strong choice for anglers who want flagship-level performance in a reel that looks as good as it fishes.
Orvis Battenkill Disc Fly Reel
The Battenkill Disc brings classic Battenkill styling into the modern era with a smooth disc drag system. A versatile freshwater reel that balances tradition and performance — ideal for trout and lighter freshwater applications where aesthetics matter as much as function.
Orvis Battenkill Click-and-Pawl Fly Reel
The original. The Battenkill Click-and-Pawl is a nod to the classic reels that defined fly fishing for generations. Simple, reliable, and deeply satisfying to fish — a natural match for bamboo and fiberglass rods, or any angler who appreciates the old-school approach to drag control.
Orvis Clearwater Fly Reel
The Clearwater reel is the ideal entry point into the Orvis lineup — affordable, capable, and backed by the same 25-year warranty as every other Orvis reel. A great match for the Clearwater rod series and a solid choice for any angler getting started or looking for a reliable backup reel.
Orvis SSR Disc Spey Reel
Built specifically for switch and Spey applications, the SSR Disc Spey reel offers the backing capacity and drag performance that two-handed fishing demands. A purpose-built tool for steelhead, salmon, and big-water Spey anglers on PNW rivers.
