It builds on the Evolution R with a 16-disc sealed drag of stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer that produces nearly 30 pounds of drag pressure, and two small counterbalances on the spool cut mass and vibration when a fish takes line on a long run. The frame and spool are reinforced for rigidity and added backing capacity, and the large, frame-integrated drag knob adjusts with the palm of your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSealed 16-disc stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer drag, nearly 30 lb of drag pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDual mini counterbalances on the spool reduce mass and vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eReinforced frame and spool for rigidity and added backing capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eLarge, frame-integrated drag knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eFully machined in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy; models start at 7.5 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMachined stainless steel internals with a coating for saltwater durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCanvas phenolic handle on a 7075-T6 chromated aluminum post\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eType II anodized finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eQuick-release spool and convertible left- or right-hand retrieve\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMade in Montrose, Colorado\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLine weights:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7wt to 12wt\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large, on a reinforced spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrag:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sealed 16-disc stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer drag, nearly 30 lb of drag pressure per Ross; large frame-integrated knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ross\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModels and specs (3)\u003c\/strong\u003e ▼\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 7\/8 - 7-8wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.51 oz; 1.350\" width x 4.08\" diameter; 7-8wt; capacity WF7 + 235 yd or WF8 + 215 yd of backing; Pairs with a 7- or 8-weight rod.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 9\/10 - 9-10wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.00 oz; 1.420\" width x 4.43\" diameter; 9-10wt; capacity WF9 + 325 yd or WF10 + 275 yd of backing; Matched to 9- and 10-weight lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 11\/12 - 11-12wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.85 oz; 1.500\" width x 4.75\" diameter; 11-12wt; capacity WF11 + 300 yd or WF12 + 250 yd of 30 lb backing; Sized for 11\/12-weight tarpon rods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShop note:\u003c\/strong\u003e We'd pair the 7\/8 with a 7wt or 8wt for bonefish or redfish, the 9\/10 with a 9wt or 10wt for permit or striped bass, and the 11\/12 with an 11wt or 12wt for tarpon.

Ross Evolution R Salt is a sealed-drag saltwater fly reel for 7wt to 12wt lines. It builds on the Evolution R with a 16-disc sealed drag of stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer that produces nearly 30 pounds of drag pressure, and two small counterbalances on the spool cut mass and vibration when a fish takes line on a long run. The frame and spool are reinforced for rigidity and added backing capacity, and the large, frame-integrated drag knob adjusts with the palm of your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSealed 16-disc stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer drag, nearly 30 lb of drag pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDual mini counterbalances on the spool reduce mass and vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eReinforced frame and spool for rigidity and added backing capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eLarge, frame-integrated drag knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eFully machined in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy; models start at 7.5 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMachined stainless steel internals with a coating for saltwater durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCanvas phenolic handle on a 7075-T6 chromated aluminum post\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eType II anodized finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eQuick-release spool and convertible left- or right-hand retrieve\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMade in Montrose, Colorado\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLine weights:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7wt to 12wt\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large, on a reinforced spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrag:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sealed 16-disc stainless steel and carbon fluoropolymer drag, nearly 30 lb of drag pressure per Ross; large frame-integrated knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ross\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModels and specs (3)\u003c\/strong\u003e ▼\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 7\/8 - 7-8wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.51 oz; 1.350\" width x 4.08\" diameter; 7-8wt; capacity WF7 + 235 yd or WF8 + 215 yd of backing; Pairs with a 7- or 8-weight rod.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 9\/10 - 9-10wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.00 oz; 1.420\" width x 4.43\" diameter; 9-10wt; capacity WF9 + 325 yd or WF10 + 275 yd of backing; Matched to 9- and 10-weight lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution R Salt 11\/12 - 11-12wt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.85 oz; 1.500\" width x 4.75\" diameter; 11-12wt; capacity WF11 + 300 yd or WF12 + 250 yd of 30 lb backing; Sized for 11\/12-weight tarpon rods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShop note:\u003c\/strong\u003e We'd pair the 7\/8 with a 7wt or 8wt for bonefish or redfish, the 9\/10 with a 9wt or 10wt for permit or striped bass, and the 11\/12 with an 11wt or 12wt for tarpon.
