Nautilus CCFX2 Fly Reel

Twice the drag strength, twice the smoothness, and built for the biggest fish on the planet.

Its dual-action CCF-X2 drag system delivers over 20 pounds of pressure with ultra-low startup inertia for precise control during blistering runs. Fully sealed with Activseal technology, this reel thrives in harsh saltwater environments. Hybrid ceramic bearings, TPX bushings, and an oversized drag knob provide consistent, fine-tuned performance, while the big game handle offers comfort and power. Available in four sizes from 6/8 through the Silver King, the CCFX2 covers everything from stripers and albies to tarpon and tuna.
