The true workhorse of fly reels. For over 60 years the Battenkill click and pawl reel from Orvis is trusted by fly anglers worldwide. It just works. Not having an adjustable drag system means less parts to fail, and on a small trout stream when we aren't using a drag system anyway, a Battenkill Click is pretty hard to beat.
For 2024, the Battenkill has had a few aesthetic changes and a color change to modernize it somewhat while staying true to the classic Battenkill look that we all know and love.
