Classic Fly Reels

The Clark Fork is a single-action click-pawl reel machined from bar-stock aluminum. It pairs with every bamboo rod we make and holds up for a lifetime of fishing.

Clark Fork Classic Fly Reel

Available in two sizes. Choose by the line weight you're fishing. Both sizes use the same click-pawl mechanism and take a standard backing + fly line.

Clark Fork Reel Bundles

The same reel, ready to fish. Choose your line weight and whether you want it spooled with a matched fly line — right-hand or left-hand retrieve.

Bundle pricing matches the individual reel. The fly line option adds a matched weight-forward line, spooled and ready. If you're ordering a rod and reel together, the Outfit variant on each rod page includes everything at a bundled price.
