Brookie Fly Reel | Galvan Fly Reels
The Galvan Brookie Fly Reel brings lightweight balance and simple, dependable line control to your favorite trout rod. Built in America from fully machined 6061 bar-stock aluminum, the Brookie pairs a smooth retrieve with adjustable spool tension for fishing light tackle on technical water.
Simple tension. A closer connection.
Instead of a traditional click-and-pawl mechanism, Galvan’s Click-Ball Tension System uses minimal moving parts to deliver customizable spool resistance. Set your preferred tension with a few turns of an Allen wrench, then use your palm to add control as the fish runs. It’s a straightforward approach for anglers who enjoy playing trout with a light touch.
Light in hand, built for the water
Distinctive porting removes excess weight, while a weatherproof finish and durable aluminum construction stand up to long days on the water. Designed to complement ultralight fly rods, the Brookie combines traditional simplicity with modern machining and a clean, open look.
- Four models cover 0- through 5-weight fly lines.
- The Click-Ball Tension System provides adjustable spool resistance.
- A smooth retrieve and palm-friendly design support hands-on fish control.
- Fully machined 6061 bar-stock aluminum delivers strength without unnecessary weight.
- Maximum porting reduces weight, and a weatherproof finish protects the exterior.
