Loomis & Franklin CLK

The Loomis & Franklin CLK fly reel gets its name from the typical permanent clutch sound. It is a super-lightweight ambidextrous fly fishing reel with elementary operation and unlimited durability. The absence of an adjustable braking system destines it for medium-light fishing for trout, chub and grayling, but on the other hand eliminates any inconvenience. Should the need arise, one can still give up line by controlling the reverse rotation of the spool with the palm of the hand.

Elementary braking system to control spool rotation.

Ultralight frame made of aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, cold forged and tempered to achieve superior strength and structural rigidity.

Frame and spool machined by turning.

Complete anodization to resist corrosion.

Oversized spool for high recovery speed.

Deep spool for superior "backing" capacity.

Ergonomic crank handle.
