The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

This product is great for anglers who are looking for a fun yet high performing reel with a ton of stopping power at a great price. These reels have 14 lbs of pressure when the drag is fully engaged so you can stop even the largest of game fish with this guy. The large arbor means you'll have faster line pick up which again is a huge bonus when dealing with bigger fish that like to run line. The reel is fully sealed so its maintenance free and can be used on both saltwater or fresh. Be careful with this reel though as it will scratch up very easily. It is unfortunately made in China also. But it is covered by the Orvis lifetime warranty if anything serious does happen to it. It comes in a wide range of fun colors!

Ideal for
  • Fully sealed Drag.
  • Drag is super strong, 14lbs when fully engaged.
  • Comes in super cool colors.
Not ideal for
  • Does scratch easily.
  • Made in China.

The Hydros is Orvis’ mid-range, large arbor fly reel that is both lightweight and durable. The Hydros is a great fit for anglers wanting a well-featured, high-quality reel at a middleground price.

Key Features:

  • Large Arbor Design – The large arbor makes each reel rotation more efficient at collecting fly line.
  • Fully Sealed Drag System – The fully-sealed drag system allows the Hydros to be a versatile option for both fresh and saltwater applications.
  • Zero Start-up Inertia – The Hyrdos has zero start-up inertia, which creates smoother and easier reeling.
  • Narrow Spool – With a narrow spool, the Hydros has less overall line stacking and provides extra backing capacity.

Matt was so easy to work with. He answered all my questions and there were many. He offered detailed explanations for his recommendations and sold me exactly what I needed, nothing more and nothing less. He also gave me valuable information regarding the sport of fly fishing and not just the current equipment I was seeking to buy. It was an amazing experience. Thanks Matt!

Rylyn found a sale for the Douglas Sky G rod and recommended it. He said that this was the best rod in the market and so I bought it. We paired it with monic Trout Master fly line. I was not disappointed at all! The rod feels intuitive and natural to cast. I could cast more accurately and a longer distance than I ever did with my previous rod.

I recently purchased a pair of waders through Curated with Stefan’s help. They were very helpful and able to get me exactly what I was looking. Items were perfect for my price range and the days by the streams/lakes that I will spend my time at. I enjoy researching products on my own, and was worried Curated might take the fun out of things, but this service is great for people like me also. Whether you have an idea of what you want, or are just getting started looking I would highly recommend Curated, and Stefan!

Found a great deal on Curated for a Daiwa fishing pole. My sales representative, Josh, was very helpful in answering questions before the order. Even more impressive was how he and Curated responded when the rod was delivered broken (not their fault). They immediately helped guide me through the return process which provided me the confidence that this would be resolved without issue. New rod is on the way and I have already ordered a second one!
