Product Description

We offer a Life Time Warranty on all Crest fly reels, as long as there is no human damage. Factory-set for left hand retrieve, the Crest fly reel comes with left hand retrieval. The guide to convert your reel to right-handed retrieval can be obtained from us upon request.
A carbon to stainless steel spool that requires no maintenance except for simple rinsing. It is impervious to water, sand, and grit. Freshwater as well as saltwater fishing can be done with this rod.
The spool is heavily ventilated to shed weight while maintaining strength. The rod is precisely CNC machined from 6061 T6 aluminum, resulting in a light yet strong rod.
With a large, flared crank handle and a U-shaped arbor, this large arbor has less memory that limits line slack and allows for rapid line handling. Having a fast line pick-up method gives you an edge over saltwater and freshwater
It provides accurate adjustment with its click drag design and silent retrieval. Crest's reel has an innovative crew-free spool disassembly design giving it the ability to easily switch from hand retrieve to foot

Questions & Answers

Do you have just the spool for sale?

In short, yes. Click on the fly reels link on their website to find them. The Crest reel can be found at the bottom. You can find a detailed description of each Crest reel on the company's website. For each size, there is an H and width, a weight, and a backing and line capacity. After that, scroll down a little and you will see an additional spool option for reel, line, wand, and reel. Click the additional You will then be able to purchase just the spool on the additional spool page. It is at this point that you can purchase a spool of thread. Easy to do.

What is the prespooled state of this product?

The spools I received did not have spooling

Are you referring to the finish that looks shiny in the picture?

There is a shiny coating on the reel. Despite this, it may not seem as shiny as in the picture, due to high levels of light. I hope it could be of help to

Selected User Reviews For Piscifun Crest Fly Fishing Reel Large Arbor Fully Sealed Drag Saltwater CNC-machined Aluminum Alloy Fly Reel 5/6, 7/8, 9/10 (Green,Black)

The best fly reel you can buy
5/5

Fly fishing is my passion and I have been doing it for over 40 years. In a typical year, I fish for 50 to 100 days. To go with a new streamer rod I purchased, I had to buy a reel. In terms of the price they charge, name brand fly reels are a total racket. If you don't want to spend $200 plus on a fly reel, don't go that route. You can buy the Piscifun Crest here. This fly rod works exceptionally well with my fly rod, and I haven't had any problems handling 10 pound brown trout with it. After discovering this company, I will not be able to purchase name-brand fly reels in the future.

Fishing with a fly while surfing
5/5

Fish off the beaches of Oregon's coastlines that I enjoy chasing include redtail surf perch. Flyfishing gear is particularly difficult to maintain when it is exposed to saltwater or sand. As a result of these harsh conditions, I searched for the most affordable reel I could find. Whenever I watch the reel, I feel like a kid again. Five of them are now in my possession for different rod and line configurations as I fish In my experience, the Crest 4 rods balance really well with my Echo Boost beach fly rods of 12 feet. It can withstand heavy usage and is easy to maintain. If you are planning on surfing fly fishing, these are the guys you want to talk to!.

It's very good looking, and it works great too! Although it is made of metal, it is quite light for its size
5/5

This rod and reel set was purchased along with a Piscifun 7WT rod to target bass in the Northeast. I found the drag easy to adjust (perhaps a little too easily), but it kept its position while I caught small mouth bass In agreement with other reviews, I wish the drag had a bit more click feature so that it would not be as easy to adjust from light to heavy drag, but after a few days, I got used to it and I may have just needed more time to adjust it. It is a wonderfully made product and there are no visible defects evident from In addition to the product, the rod also provides great value for money. Then, I'll likely buy another for my brother so he can fall in love with fly fishing, and probably another in a 5WT for myself as well.

This sweet reel will keep you hooked
5/5

I have no complaints about the fit or finish of this reel. With its smooth operation and very strong drag system, the tug is light and easy to use. In accordance with the 8-point scale 125 yds of Access Saltwater line were put in. I have a few more backers to add, but the spool is still halfway Probably double or even triple that amount would have allowed me to finish the job and not completely fill the reel up. There is a lot of value in this reel!.

I thought it was a great reel, but it was a bit small for my needs
5/5

My reel is a Crest 9/10, which has a smooth drag system which I like. A #9 saltwater outfit would not fit in it, unfortunately. There is only 125 yards of 20 lb backing allowed at the Crest, whereas I would prefer 150 yards of 30 lb In my case, I chose the Platte, which is ideal, and I was pleased with Piscifun's customer service.

It is a very well-built reel and it is a really good price
5/5

I just bought it recently and I am really impressed with its quality. I am very pleased with the light weight and smooth drag. I can't say enough good things about it. It was great to get the green version of the 7/8 weight, and I am happy with it so far. This is going to be paired with the.

That reel is amazing
5/5

I am a fan of his work. After buying the piscifun Sword fly reel, rod and other items I am happy with and have learned to rely on, I decided to get this reel to complete my regular fly fishing setup. A reel of this quality is called the Crest. Despite its smoothness, quietness, and tightness, it holds the harmonic well. It looks awesome with the green finish. Smooth drag is provided by the system. Since I am a fly fishing enthusiast, I own a lot of fancy gear, so it's amazing that piscifun sells something of these quality for a reasonable price. As a result of discovering this band, I will find it hard to return to my previous Instead of paying what a spool from other brands costs, you get a whole reel with Piscifun! Excellent book! I highly recommend it!.

This is the first time I have used the sealed drag system on a car
5/5

In the past year, I have purchased two Piscifun reels. My favorite aspect of the CREST is the sealed drag system, and I absolutely love it when fishing inshore salt water. Seawater is isolated from the drag, offering a very smooth drag.
