Seamaster Marlin Fly Reel

The Seamaster Marlin Fly Reel is the ultimate expression of strength, precision, and craftsmanship in big-game fly fishing. Designed and hand-built by legendary reelmaker Bob McChristian, this rare and highly sought-after reel was purpose-built to handle the blistering runs and brute force of bluewater giants like marlin, tuna, and sailfish. Featuring a fully sealed, heat-dissipating drag system with immense stopping power and buttery-smooth startup, the Marlin model delivers unmatched control under extreme pressure. Machined from solid bar-stock aluminum and finished in corrosion-resistant anodizing, it’s a reel as beautiful as it is bombproof. With its distinctive profile, unyielding performance, and extreme rarity, the Seamaster Marlin isn’t just a tool—it’s a grail for collectors and a legend among saltwater fly anglers. The reel is in excellent condition. The drag dial has the first owner's name engraved on it.
