At Bauer, our mission is to go beyond expectations in design, function, and aesthetics with any reel we make. When we looked at building our next saltwater and big game reel, we focused on reliability, strength, and intuitive function.
In the end, our new reel is not just built, but born from the flats, jungle backwaters, and off shore environments, specifically for any demanding angler’s pursuit of perfect performance.
WELCOME TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF BIG GAME FLYFISHING PERFORMANCE.
