“If you like quality American made products, be sure to stop in to either our Craig Shop or our Helena Shop to check out the all new Orvis Mirage reel. I have two of these reels; one is in the size II and is paired with an 8’6″ 4wt. Helios 2 rod, the other is a size IV and is paired with a 9′ 7wt. Helios 2 rod. From trout to carp and with any luck a few redfish next winter, this reel performs. A lot of people say you don’t need a great reel for trout, that a reel just holds line. These folks clearly haven’t met a hot Missouri River rainbow trout, because your reel just might be the determining factor on whether or not you land that fish.” Ben Cooley, Manager of CrossCurrents Fly Shop in Craig, Montana
