Nautilus Reel: CCF

Nautilus CCF reel is still the smoothest, toughest and most consistent drag system in the market. The CCF series brought new technology into the big game fly fishing market by introducing a drag system that incorporated all the qualities of cork drags and added the unbeatable startup inertia of carbon fiber. So unique is this drag system that the company was awarded a utility patent by the USPTO in 2008, which means that no other manufacturer will ever get close to the performance of the CCF drags unless they license the technology from Nautilus Reels. Six years in and our CCF reels are still sealed and maintenance free, and perform exactly the way they did the day they left the factory. That is what you can expect from all our products: Performance and reliability. Standard in black or brushed silver. Made in the USA.
