The Bauer Difference: Bauer’s “Zero Backlash” Clutch
Our unique clutch engages seamlessly, allowing line to strip off the reel with a silky- smooth feel and consistent performance in all conditions. You can tell the difference.
We design and build this clutch mechanism from non-corrosive materials, making it more reliable and more durable than the roller clutch bearing system commonly used in other fly reels.
The Bauer Difference: Fully Sealed Carbon Fiber Drag System
The same reel is as reliable in freshwater with a brook trout as it is in saltwater with a huge tarpon. No maintenance is required to keep the drag in peak condition.
Bauer builds its two custom drag plates from carbon fiber instead of cork or other materials. Unlike cork, carbon fiber’s performance is not reliant on lubrication, and unlike polymers, it is not affected by temperature changes and provides consistent, dependable performance. After all, a drag that doesn’t work is a drag.
The Bauer Difference: Aerospace Precision Manufacturing
Bauer combines precision manufacturing, leading technology and a background in race cars in its reel design. We revolutionized the fly reel world in 1995 with our award-winning large arbor design combining superior performance with precision manufactured parts. But unlike a race car, every reel is now hand-assembled and hand-tested by anglers in Montana.
The Bauer Difference: Bauer reels are built by Winston hands in Montana.
The perfect reel needs to be perfect. We take the time to do it right.
We at Winston and Bauer only make products that we love to use. We love the incredibly smooth feel of the fly line coming off a Bauer reel as much as we love the feel of casting a Winston rod. Get the best. It makes a big difference to love what you use, worry free.
We hand assemble every Bauer fly reel and Winston rod by hand in Twin Bridges, Montana using the finest materials available. Come visit. And go fishing…
