ORLANDO, Fla. – The voters at the ICAST have voted the Pflueger® President as the Best Fly Reel at the 2016 ICAST show in Orlando, Fla.
Style and function are two attributes strived for in every fishing reel. Style, because anglers want to look good with their favorite passion and function because anglers rely on the reel to make their fishing experience the best it can be. Pflueger understands and the new President® mid arbor fly reel has both the look and performance for the successful angler.
The mid arbor size of the President is larger than the standard reel for better line retrieval yet smaller than the large arbor styles for balance. Made of high-grade aluminum, the reel's frame and spool are precision machined for the utmost in fit and performance.
Smooth stacked discs create a drag mechanism that is smooth and reliable. The ergonomic aluminum handle is comfortable and easy to use and reel also features a quick release spool. The reel can be configured for either right- or left-hand use.
