Maximum Capacity for the Biggest Water

Designed for offshore marlin, sailfish, sharks and other powerful gamefish, the Old Mariner 12+ Lever Drag Fly Reel is built for situations where maximum backing capacity, fast line retrieval and serious drag performance matter.

The dual-sided frame keeps the spool, drag and sealed ceramic bearings precisely aligned under extreme loads, helping eliminate spool flex when the pressure is on. The lever drag moves from free spool to full lock-down in a single turn, giving you fast, precise control throughout the fight.

With generous backing capacity and a large 5.25-inch spool, the Old Mariner 12+ is at home offshore and pairs with single-hand, switch and two-handed rods.

Testimonials

"One of the smoothest drag systems you will ever encounter. I've been fishing the 8 and 10 weight reels for a few months. Bullet proof, and drag tension is so easy to set. I am surrounded by the salt and have dropped, submerged and abused these reels. Paul is one of the most experienced, talented, fly reel manufacturer's you will ever meet. He has always stood behind his products and that goes back over 30 years. You will not be disappointed, I promise!"

-Guy Tillotson

Over 10 years of development by legendary fly reel maker Paul Conover, the Old Mariner fly reel is literally the smoothest and strongest reel i have ever had the opportunity to use. Built with a dual frame that supports the spool eliminating bearing wear, and a drawbar type sealed drag that has what seems like zero inertia start up along with materials that creates a weight that is actually lighter than other reels, there is really no equal - even comparing reels at twice the cost. Built in the USA, Paul stands behind this reel with a warranty that covers repair at no charge including shipping back to him for the life of the owner. No questions asked. For saltwater or fresh, tarpon, red fish, steelhead, or salmon and many others - in my mind - no other reel comes close.
