SHILTON FLY REELS – NEW SL5 & SL7 LARGE ARBORS
- August
2004
The
superb range of CL & SL series Shilton fly reels are proving to
be the best fly reels money can buy.
This is a world class reel which cannot be beaten on quality
and price.
Our latest addition to the SL Large Arbor series includes the SL5
which is going to be a winner for Largemouth Yellowfish and the SL7
for heavy-duty offshore saltwater fly fishing .
These precision-machined aluminium reels are crafted using the
latest CNC technology.
The large custom processed high-grade cork drag delivers a very
smooth and powerful drag system with exceptionally low start-up
inertia.
Shilton fly reels also have a click type drag knob for consistent
setting.
The Shilton fly reel’s washers and springs are captive within the
draw bar cap resulting in less loose parts when changing spools.
The exposed palming rim has been specifically designed for
additional control.
These reels have an extremely simple disassembly procedure for
cleaning after saltwater use.
Every reel is supplied with a durable pouch, which has been
specifically designed to fit the reel while still on the fly rod,
and comes with a bottle of drag lube.
All Shilton fly reels are saltwater approved and come with a limited
life warranty.
Shilton
fly reels have been extensively tested by the top fly fishing guides
in and out of South Africa, from whom we have received exceptional
feedback.

(FLY FISHING AND FLY TYING- U.K OCTOBER 2005)
“The SL6 looks pretty and feels just
gorgeous - everthing tight, every edge smooth... flawless machining.”
(TROUT AND
SALMON- U.K APRIL 2005)
“SL5 - South African Beauty”
“The ideal choice for stillwater and sea trout fishers.”
(TROUT AND
SALMON- U.K SEPTEMBER 2005)
“Could be a
classic”
“The CK2 joins a range that has earned it’s pedigree with
saltwater fly anglers,
but is ideal for the river trout fisherman
who needs only one prized reel for his
dry fly forays.”
(THE COMPLETE FLY
FISHERMAN - AUGUST 2004)
“I cannot speak highly enough of the reel made by Shilton. It's
standard of engineering is little
short of breathtaking - the thing has a beauty of it's own and it
is functional to boot. Once they are discovered on the overseas market, I predict that we
will battle for stock locally. The drag
is easily adjustable and takes off smoothly, nor with an initial resistance which can break you up. Well presented in a genuine
leather pouch, these reels are a joy to own.”
