Of course it can be done. We’ve done it over and over again, but does there come a time when the bar can’t be raised?\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNo, there are always improvements to be made, new ways of thinking, new materials, and processes to exploit. As we’ve said – the performance benchmark for a fly reel is retrieve rate per ounce. If you haven’t thought about it before, think about it now: there’s no downside to high retrieve rate other than extra weight.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAs an example, consider the 2021 Gen 6 Litespeed: CNC machined with material distributed artfully along critical load paths, stable and strong, so light you might forget it’s there, but beautiful enough to make you remember it is.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe art of the fly reel derives from the science of the fly reel, but at the end of the day both art and science, when held in balance, serve to make us smile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLSM – The marine version of Litespeed is equipped with a hybrid drag system, sharing some elements of the Cobalt drag – fixed spindle, large heat-wicking conical surfaces, click stop drag knob. The LSM incorporates close tolerance composite bearings, and comes equipped with the same linear spring set found on LSF, optimized for each reel size. Like our Cobalt reel, it holds an IPX8 waterproof rating to 100 ft. LSM frame and spool share the same open structure as LSF, with emphasis on greater stiffness and stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNew Size 6 available now - Our Litespeed M drag and super arbor format in a smaller package, ideal for lighter inshore setups.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamson","offers":[{"title":"Ultramarine \/ 6","offer_id":46798608859414,"sku":"LSM6REEL-UM","price":729.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ultramarine \/ 8","offer_id":46798608892182,"sku":"LSM8REEL-UM","price":749.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Riviera \/ 10","offer_id":48927623414038,"sku":"LSM10REEL-RIV","price":769.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/3804\/2646\/files\/litespeed-m-9352420.png?v=1757521110"},{"product_id":"lamson-liquid-max","title":"Lamson Liquid Max","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNobody Likes a Bully.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Anyone who says this hasn’t experienced the new Liquid Max, a bully and a beast of a reel.

We’ve housed this drag in a pressure cast and machined frame and spool, with features that include Ultra Large Arbor, integrated reel foot and pocket spar frame and spool design that maximizes strength-to-weight ratio.
