NAUTILUS FWX REELS The Nautilus FWX series are the lightest, most technologically advanced trout reels on the market. We can proudly say that we make the lightest machined aluminum disc drag fly reel on the market. Like the NVG reels, the FWX sport our Giga arbor spool design that promotes faster line pick up and backing drying. In addition to the advanced spool designs used in these reels, we have added a new stainless steel 1-way clutch that is housed in our proprietary TORQ-X™ clutch drive that ensures instant drag engagement with no slack. The retrieve direction can be easily switched from left hand to right hand and the spools are easily changed with a push on and click off release. One of the most popular creations to come out of the Nautilus think-tank is the industry first LaserID™ line identification system: We have laser etched a white spot on the back of each FWX spool to write the line type and weight that you are using. Write with a permanent marker and wipe it off with alcohol when you change lines. No more washed out or lost line stickers. New for 2013: FWX 1/3 This reel combines all the strength and efficacy of its bigger siblings into the smallest, sealed, lightest disc drag reel available.

The STANDARD for BIG GAME FLY FISHING DID YOU KNOW? Cork drags were first used in the 1930’s, when car gear boxes and brakes were made of cork. We still don’t understand how cork is even considered as the primary drag surface in fly reels. Then came Rulon® in the 70’s. What are they thinking? Nostalgia maybe…

THE NAUTILUS NV (~EN-VEE)
UNPARALLELED in Weight and Performance
The Nautilus NV (~EN-VEE) series is available in four sizes and is unparalleled in both weight and performance. The Nautilus NV 8/9, 10/11, 11/12 are completely impervious to the elements and will outperform any fighting class reel on the market today. The NV series feature the NV CCF drag system that is larger than the Nautilus CCF brake, and stainless steel components have largely been replaced by ceramics and titanium. These true large arbor reels are only exceeded in performance by the slender looks and subtle beauty: No detail has been omitted, from its low profile drag knob and counterweight to the 100 and 200 yard backing markers on the inside of the spool. The Nautilus NV series are the lightest reels in their class, and offer the greatest value in any big game fly reel available in the market today. A reel of a lifetime for a lifetime of trips. These are without a doubt, the best reels money can buy.

NAUTILUS NV-G REELS
THE ÜBER-ARBORS
The NV-G series are built on the tried, tested and trusted NV 5/6 through NV Monster frames, and feature the patented and award winning NV CCF Disc Braking System. The G-Spool designs transform your NV reels into über-arbor fly reels that pick up line faster than any other comparable reel in the market. The G-Spool (Giga Spool) design reduces the reel weight significantly and generates less line coiling and much faster line retrieval (up to 15 inches per turn on the G-10)! The unique CNC machining on these reels gives the impression that the backing is floating above the arbor, creating significant air space under the backing which promotes faster backing drying. Wet backing is the leading cause of corrosion in fly reels, and the G-Spool design dries 14 times faster than traditional designs. Nothing compares: drag, design or performance. ALER’S CH DE

NAUTILUS NV 11/12
NAUTILUS NV G10 Monster. Do we need to say more? Yes: The most heard comment from guides testing this reel was: “No questions asked. Usually customers will ask questions and why this and that, but with the G-10 the customer looks at it once and says “I am buying one of these when we get back to shore.” They immediately see the benefits.” The G-10 makes heads turn: Biggest 10 weight on the market, lighter than anything comparable, superb proven drag system, striking looks and almost 15” of line pick up per turn of the handle. Can’t beat that! Ü BE R-AR BOR S The G-Spool design transforms your NV reels into über-arbor fly reels that pick up line faster than any other comparable reel in the market.

NAUTILUS NV SPEY REELS Since we first began making the Nautilus reels we have always kept close contact with the Spey and two-hander segment of this sport. For 9 years now we have published our Spey specs chart to help you figure out what reel to match to your favorite Spey rod and line. Over time we have gathered a huge following in this niche fly fishing market and we are constantly listening to what is coming, what is going and adapting our reels to upcoming trends. The Nautilus NV Spey reels have been designed to maximize the effectiveness of thin running lines, and we feature the hugely popular Giga arbor design for lightning fast line pick up and minimal line memory. PERFECT IN BALANCE, FORM AND FUNCTION. INGENIOUS PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES:

THE NAUTILUS NV SPEY Engineered for SERIOUS BUSINESS Whether Spey or overhead casting a two handed rod, the reel requirements remain the same: large capacity to fit a modest amount of backing under these biggest of lines, and just enough weight to balance a 12 to 15 foot two-handed rod. The Nautilus NV Spey reels was specifically built to address the needs of Spey casters and two-handers. Ideal backing capacity and added weight for a perfectly balanced outfit. NV Spey 400-550: 8.1 oz, 4.25� dia, 400-550 grain heads or 7/8/9 weight Spey lines. NV Spey 450-750: 9.1 oz, 4.5� dia, 450-750 grain heads or 9/10/11 weight Spey lines. These spools have been named to reflect the recommended range of grain weights of the line heads for each, starting at the lowest recommended to the biggest line that will comfortably fit with at least 150 yards of 30 lb. backing. The NV Spey 400-550 will fit your existing NV 10/11 frame and the NV Spey 450-750 fits the NV 11/12 frame.
