*This is a great place to start in a fly reel. Ross quality at a reasonable price. The # 4 works great on 7 and 8 weight bass rods. The Flystart is a hybrid large arbor fly reel that is affordably priced, yet built with the same commitment to quality and performance as all Ross reels. The drag system is dependable and smooth with a wide range of adjustment. Fly fishing is a sport that everyone can enjoy, but for many people, the price of fly tackle is often a barrier to participation.
