Introducing the Redington Behemoth Fly Reel

The Behemoth blends rugged, purpose-driven design with striking aesthetics. Its die-cast, un-machinable body pairs with an interlocking, large-arbor spool to deliver a reel that feels premium in hand and performs confidently on the water. Optimized for a wide range of angling scenarios, this reel is sized for a favorite 5-weight trout rod yet rugged enough for saltwater adventures and big-game sizes.

Why anglers choose Behemoth

At the core is a robust drag system and a thoughtful build that emphasizes reliability, smooth operation, and practical use in real-world fishing days. The carbon fiber drag package provides strong, consistent stopping power when a run tests your line, while the large arbor design helps bring line to hand quickly, reducing memory and making it easier to manage faster takes.

• Powerful drag in its class with a focus on dependable performance across species and conditions.
• Die-cast construction with an interlocking, durable spool for a premium look and feel.
• Easy retrieval thanks to the large arbor and a twin molded handle with an ergonomic grip.
• Backing capacity designed to cover a range of setups from light 5/6 configurations to heavier 11/12 lines.

Construction and performance in the field

Designed to handle the toughest days, the Behemoth’s durable, un-machinable body resists the wear of briny spray and rocky shorelines while maintaining smooth, precise drag control. The carbon fiber drag package delivers strong stopping power without sacrificing consistent feel, allowing you to focus on line management and rhythm during a fight.

The reel’s large arbor not only speeds line pickup but also reduces line memory, helping you maintain a smoother cast arc and quicker resets between casts. The ergonomic twin molded handle provides a confident, comfortable grip for extended sessions on the water.
