The Cheeky PreLoad reels come spooled up and ready to fish with Cheekyâ€s premium backing, specially paired weight forward floating fly line, and a 9 foot loop-to-loop tapered leader. Spend less time and money rigging up and more time on the water. The PreLoadâ€s die cast frame and body, coupled with CNC componentry and post-fabrication machining, make this reel the ideal choice for the angler needing a performance fly fishing reel without breaking the bank. Lightweight, durable, and known for its strong and smooth drag systems, Cheeky Fishing has delivered yet again with the PreLoadâ€s S-Power Drag System.

Top it all off with an included 9 foot loop-to-loop tapered leader and youâ€ll be ready to hit the water instantly.

Questions about Cheeky Fishing PreLoad Fly Reel

What brand fly line is it ? Purchased this and the core of the line is exposed .I’m north water was 60 degrees

Answer: The fly line is Cheeky’s fly line made specifically for their PreLoads, so the good news is that it’s fully backed by their top-notch Warranty and Repair Team. I recommend you send the full reel and line in for them to take a look at and they will get everything sorted out for you. They have EXCELLENT customer service!!

Why is the drag so light? I used it for saltwater , perfect for a 9’6 but a 9ft no go . Great reel just need new fly line ????????

Answer: Drag strength will depend on what model PreLoad you have. The PreLoad 375 reel will certainly have the strongest drag of all Cheeky’s PreLoad Reels — designed for 7-8wt setups. The PreLoad’s S-Power drag system is super smooth and the reel is an excellent choice for anglers looking to tackle medium-sized fish in both fresh and saltwater!

Do they sell extra spools?
