Galvan Brookie Fly Reel
Galvan Fly Reels, Inc.
$275.00
We have always been fans of simple, elegant products that work. The Galvan Brookie is everything you need in a smaller freshwater reel with none of the things you don’t. Very lightweight with a smooth “drag” and a large arbor for fast pickup and low line memory. Made of machined anodized aluminum for a lifetime and more of use.
The “click ball” drag mechanism, similar in function to the click-pawl mechanism used by other manufacturers, is a departure from anything seen in the past. Adjustments are made with a standard size allen wrench. As with the click-pawl system, drag is the same incoming and outgoing.
IMPORTANT:
At your request, we will rig this reel with Dacron backing free of charge. If you are purchasing a line and would like us to install both line and backing, let us know and we will have it fully rigged and ready to go.

Add a note to your order on the shopping cart page to provide the following information:
- Would you like the reel set up for left or right hand retrieve?
- What color backing would you prefer? The free options are White, Fluorescent Yellow and Orange.
- If you are purchasing a line, would you like us to install it on the reel? If so, we will install the appropriate amount of backing for that line. If we will be installing backing without a line, we will go by the manufacturer’s specifications for the smallest line recommended for that reel. If you would prefer something different, please let us know.
