The Redington Crosswater is the reel that proves you don't have to spend a fortune to fish with confidence. Built from durable, large-arbor polymer with a smooth, reliable disc-drag system, the Crosswater delivers fish-stopping performance whether you're working a dry fly on the Davidson River or chasing trout in the Blue Ridge headwaters. It's the reel Jesse Brown's staff recommends to anglers stepping into fly fishing for the first time — and it holds up season after season.

Key Features

  • Large-arbor design — faster line retrieval and reduced line memory for cleaner casts
  • Reliable disc-drag system — smooth, consistent pressure to tire fish without breaking tippet
  • Durable polymer construction — lightweight and corrosion-resistant for freshwater use
  • Machined aluminum spool — adds rigidity without adding weight
  • Convertible retrieve — easily switches between left and right-hand retrieve
  • Available in two sizes: 4/5/6 wt and 7/8/9 wt to match your rod

Specs

  • 4/5/6 Weight: Ideal for trout, panfish, and small streams — pairs perfectly with a 9' 5-weight rod
  • 7/8/9 Weight: Built for larger rivers, bass, and saltwater flats fishing
  • Price: $79.99 — exceptional value for a disc-drag reel at this price point
