Greys Tail AW Fly Reel 9/10 – All-Water Performance, Full-Disc Drag, Pouch Included

Engineered for all-water performance

The Greys Tail AW fly reel is designed to perform in freshwater pools, brackish flats, and saltwater days alike. Its die-cast aluminum construction is machined to precise tolerances and finished with an anodizing pretreatment and durable paint, delivering a tough, eye-catching reel that resists the elements while remaining smooth to operate. Whether you are drifting a stream, casting pockets along a seaside estuary, or chasing wary fish in a big river, Tail AW aims to be dependable in a variety of environments.

The result is a reel that blends strength with a visually striking multi-color finish, built to withstand the miles of casting and the weather you encounter on the water. This is gear designed for anglers who value performance without sacrificing style, and who want gear that stands up to the rough-and-tumble realities of modern angling.

Smooth control and consistent stopping power

The Tail AW features a sealed carbon disc drag system that delivers smooth, steady resistance through long, hard battles. With a max drag of 12 lb (6 kg), the Tail AW provides reliable braking power to help you manage line control as fish surge through currents and structure. This setup is about balanced, controllable performance rather than heavy-handed intervention, allowing you to respond to what the fish does next.

Uncompromising design for fast retrieves

A modern large arbor spool enables rapid line retrieval, helping you keep pace with moving fish and swiftly recover after a cast. The fully enclosed frame prevents line escapes, and the design accommodates small-diameter running lines for a streamlined setup that stays tight when you cast and fish hard.

Built to last and easy to maintain

Durability comes from two machining steps that deliver precise tolerances and long-term reliability. The combination of anodizing pretreatment and a durable paint coating provides corrosion resistance for saltwater use while preserving the reel’s crisp look over time.

Versatile, user-friendly configuration

The Tail AW ships in a Left Hand Wind configuration but is ready for both left and right-handed anglers. Switching to Right Hand Wind is as simple as flipping the one-way bearing. A reel pouch is included for safe transport and storage, helping you keep your gear protected on trips and in transit.
