Questions about Redington Behemoth Fly Reel

Product reviews of Redington Behemoth Fly Reel

Zack wood : INSANE

Absolutely am insane reel. I bought a second to just have. Will be having one lined with sinking line and one with sink tip float. Can dial in for 15-25 inch native river rainbows, steelhead or even 33 lb (not in pic) salmon with no issues. Rod will blow apart before your drag gives. Just a straight up beast and I wish I had every size color and variation of this animal. BUY THIS REEL!!!!

yony : Absolute beast

I had bought the 7/8 piscifun sword reels which do work well. But I needed a bigger arbor that could hold a bunch of line cause I plan on using my fly rods for everything. By that I mean bigger fish.

I bought the Orange 11/12 cause I prefer color over the regular black.
- Its a matte Orange extremely nice color
- the Reel is huge which I see as a plus it definitely looks strong
- The reel look really nice
- The Drag is insanely strong. This strong enough for pretty much almost every single fish. A lot people complain how their drag knob is loose. But seems this is a 2020 model and my drag knob is tight no wiggle or play whatsoever.

- The drag and spool knob are made of plastic so that's where the reel starts to feel a bit cheap, but it's nothing to really worry about.
- The Reel is aluminum but its not heavy for such a big size. Cause its big you could save some weight and get a 7/8 cause those hold 200 yd of backing vs 11/12 holds 250yds @ 30lbs.

- Reel clicks when retrieving and also has the same click on the drag. Its sounds really nice TBH. if you set your drag correctly. Which allows fish to take some line when fighting them, people will deff hear your drag if their close to you.

Have not used it yet. But I already have plans for this weekend in Montauk shore fishing as well as some fishing in Florida when I visit my family member. I plan on large stripers, Bluefish, Redfish, Jack Crevalle, Kingfish. Small Tuna.

I am absolutely stoked at the quality tbh. Comes with a redington canvas padded bag for holding & protection.

For those wondering the setup. I recently got into Fly fishing, And hands down I love it more than spinning or baitcasting. I only have a 9 weight so I will be pairing it with that for now.

9 wt fly rod (I do plan on getting an 11 wt rod for the bigger fish soon. Redington predator to be exact)
- 20lbs backing 300 yds
- 100ft 5ips 10 wt sinking line

but for now I am confident in my 9 wt can handle most of my fishing with the right drag set.

Donald E. Meyer : Worked great

The drag on this unit is fantastic especially when you have Salmon on the line

Amazon Customer : Quality product affordable price

I like this reel so much I ordered a second one. Was going to order a second spool for the original one but found I could get a whole other reel for $20 over the cost of spool alone. It is not the lightest reel when you compare with other makes, but I don't find that to be a detriment in any way. Let's face it, there are plenty of good reels to choose from so choosing one has a lot to do with aesthetics and price tag... I think this is a solid buy. It seems to be readily available and is functionally sound. I like it.

James D. : Affordable quality

You can't go wrong with this reel for the money.

Zack wood : INSANE

Reid Gulbranson-Burton : Great.

Great feel and drag.

Andy MacKay : Tough Reel

Nice reel , a bit heavy and the drag is a little too strong . But all in all a good reel for the price.

Reid Gulbranson-Burton : Great.

Great feel and drag.

Shoes : Go big or go home

For Pacific Chinook ???? Salmon. It’s big it’s tough with smooth drag. Huge upgrade from ???? Piscifun Sword reel that fell apart last season. Behemoth go big for go home ????????
