- Available in 4 colors — Matte Black, Platinum, Matte Olive, and Matte Blue
Line Weight Options
Choose the size that matches your rod and target species: 4/5 for trout and panfish, 5/6 for all-around freshwater, or 7/8 for bass, pike, and light saltwater.
Imagine the feel of a 20-inch brown trout peeling line against that drag — the Animas is built for exactly that moment.
