由 Brian Townsend Here’s a concise breakdown of the Ross Evolution R Salt 9/10 Reel in Platinum with the free $130 fly line and backing offer:
Key Features:
– Model: Ross Evolution R Salt (9/10 weight)
– Finish: Platinum (durable, corrosion-resistant)
– Drag System: Sealed, carbon fiber multi-disc (smooth, powerful)
– Construction: Machined aluminum (lightweight yet tough)
– Line Capacity: Fits 9/10WT lines + backing (ideal for saltwater/species like tarpon, permit, bonefish)
– Freebie: Includes a $130 premium fly line (likely saltwater-specific) + backing (great value add).
Pros:
✅ Superb Drag: Handles hard-running saltwater fish.
✅ Lightweight: Balances well with heavier rods.
✅ Corrosion-Resistant: Sealed drag/bearings for salt use.
✅ Free Fly Line: High-quality line (e.g., Scientific Anglers Mastery) saves you money.
Cons:
⚠️ Price: Premium reel (MSRP ~$600–$700, but free line offsets cost).
⚠️ Size: 9/10WT may be overkill for lighter freshwater use.
Best For:
– Saltwater fly fishing (tarpon, bonefish, etc.)
– Anglers needing a reliable, sealed drag reel.
– Those wanting a high-end reel + free top-tier line.
Verdict:
A top-tier saltwater reel with a great deal thanks to the included fly line. If you need a 9/10WT reel for big game, this is a stellar choice.
Tip: Confirm the exact fly line model (e.g., floating/sinking) to ensure it matches your needs.
