At the 2010 Denver IFTD show we had the chance to ask Kurt Van Wyck, engineer and research and development guru for Far Bank Enterprises, some questions about the new 4200 series of fly reels from Sage. Equipped to the gills with a compact, sealed stainless steel and graphite drag unit, ten repeatable drag settings, an innovative concave spool design for rigidity and increased backing capacity, a hardcore black and platinum finish, and a neoprene and ballistic cloth protective reel case, each reel in the series is at the head of its class. The 4200 Series was designed with the help of aerospace grade solid modeling software and put through extensive testing in the lab and on the water to insure the highest standards of performance and reliability on the market. The Sage 4200 Series Fly Reels are more like finely tuned Formula 1 race cars than fly fishing gear.
