The fly fishing industry has changed considerably since Ross introduced our first fly reel almost thirty years ago. One of the
reasons for Ross' success is our ability to adapt as the fly fishing
market continues to evolve. That is why we believe "Evolution" is the
perfect name for our latest reel. The Evolution is the best in large
arbor technology. It is the perfect reel for 1wt. through 7wt. rods. To
guarantee the level of dependability consumers have come to expect from
Ross, we modeled the Evolution's drag system after the Canyon Big Game
series. Even though the drag design is more than one will need for
light tackle pursuits, it is guaranteed to handle any species your rod
can match. Because a durable drag system is only one component of a
perfect reel, great time was also invested into developing a drag
system that is precise and sensitive - capable of protecting the
lightest tippets even when battling world-class fish. The Evolution
series is lightweight but built sturdy to ensure a lifetime of flawless
performance. The spool has the perfect ratio of width to arbor
diameter. While others settle for a standard width for their entire
series of reels we have assigned each of the five sized Evolutions a
different width ensuring the best match between diameter and width
among the full range of sizes. The Evolution will surpass the
expectations of the most discriminating angler, and as with all Ross
Reels, the Evolution is guaranteed for life.
