Being an enthusiastic fly fisherman, I’m always looking for new tackle. Reels are especially interesting to me. Actuality, I’m quite a collector of fine reels. One that I’ve currently added to my compilation is the Greys G
Tec 350. This is why I picked it.

Fly Fishing Tackle - Details Regarding the Greys G Tec 350 Fly Reel

This is a disc drag large arbour fly fishing reel that has a superior price-performance ratio. A UK product, the G Tec 350 is designed using a sophisticated style which employs a confirmed multi-disc drag system. Precision produced from bar stock, the fishing reel has a cageless, large arbour and is completely balanced. With plenty of capacity for backing, the 350 is designed with a ribbed, soft-touch handle which is simple to grip in all types of weather. The resilient, hard anodised titanium finish on the quality grade aluminium body offers this fishing reel a shiny, stylish appearance.

Fly Fishing Tackle - More Aspects of the G Tec 350

The G Tec 350 is equipped with four Rulon disk brake pads to get flawless control. Manufactured from a quality grade alloy, the fishing reel has a considerable amount of drilled aeration holes that also reduce the weight to only 6 ounces (173 grams). The reel’s style is pleasing to the eye, having red detailing on the fishing reel foot and also a ribbed, soft touch red handle on its spool. The drag control knob is found on the back of the cage. One particular quality you’re certain to appreciate in wintry, soggy weather would be the knurling on the outer rim of the drag knob which calls for only one turn to change the drag from none to completely on.

It’s quite effortless to change out the spool by means of a spring loaded lever fixed on the spool. Just adjust the lever and remove the spool. To change the fishing reel from left handed to right handed wind, merely take out the spool and then detach the retaining cap in the spool to get to the main bearing. From there, merely take off the bearing, turn it over and replace the cap. There’s little or no line memory, considering the liberal width of the spool and the large arbour. This is what Greys themselves think about this remarkable fishing reel:

“The looks proclaim its uniqueness, but it’s the performance that counts, and this is exemplary. Big fish anglers, competition anglers, anglers to whom every fish must be landed appreciate the four Rulon disc brake pads that give the most complete control throughout the fight. The genuine large arbour ensures that even lines as light as four weight touch down delicately with next to no memory. This is essential for dry fly and buzzer work especially. Every detail stresses the quality of the reel - down to the ribbed, soft touch handle that gives an impeccable, all-weather grip.”. (Source: http://fly.greysfishing.com/)
