The Torrent is Colton Fly Company’s latest creation. Almost three years of design work went into this fly reel. We set out to build the best high quality saltwater fly reel that would rival the big name manufacturers at a fraction of the price. Mission accomplished!
All the reels in the Torrent series are cut from 6061 T-6 bar stock aluminum and are type II double anodized for maximum durability. The drag surface of the Torrent is made up of stacked PTFE Rulon discs, a material rather new to the fly reel industry that has unbelievable tolerances. Rulon is rated for CONSTANT operating temperature ranging from –400*F to 550*F and has zero water absorption!
The drag is activated by a Quad pawl Delrin coated Titanium ring. This engagement system is impervious to extreme cold and extreme heat. No “Free Spooling” to worry about on this reel. All in all you have a reel that is built to last for generations at an affordable price. You grand children will enjoy them when the time comes.
