The Curated Take

The Lamson Liquid fly reel is quite honestly the best reel in its price range. It has an over achieving, fully sealed conical disc drag system. This drag allows for very easy retrieval direction as well. It’s super large arbor design allows for extreme high speed line retrieval rates. The reel is a pressure die-cast aluminum reel making it more durable than a more die-cast aluminum reel but also still susceptible to dings and scratches as the aluminum is soft. The drag knob is kind of small making it harder to turn and adjust. The reel cage is also not a full cage design so thinner lines will catch between the reel cage and spool. The Lamson Liquid reel is definitely a reel id recommend to anyone looking for a great real that is extremely affordable.
