Tibor Riptide Fly Reel

Signed. Sealed. Delivered.

Once again, Tibor Reels sets the standard for quality, design and innovation with the Tibor Signature Series. 2011 marked the 45th Anniversary of Tibor Reel Corporation, and to celebrate, Tibor introduced a revolutionary new line of reels that are the pinnacle of 45 years of designing and manufacturing the world’s finest fly fishing reels.

Signed by Master reel designer and fly fisherman Ted “Tibor” Juracsik, the elegant and efficient design of the Tibor Signature Series consists of very few parts. It features a completely ventilated spool and frame that keeps the reel cool during long, smoking runs and provides a robust incoming and outgoing clicker sound.

Features

• The completely ventilated spool and frame keeps the reel cool during long, smoking runs.
• Boasts a robust incoming and outgoing clicker sound.
• Unique mechanical clutch system allows easy change from right to left hand retrieve. Features Tibor’s QuickChange™ spool system which involves only a single moving part.
• Innovative sealed drag system is waterproof, self-maintaining and still the strongest in the industry.
• The drag system constantly applies seal pressure while in free spool so the reel will never overrun while stripping the line.
• Comes equipped with our legendary silky smooth micro grain cork that is constantly lubricated.
• On the rare occasion that maintenance is necessary, the system can be easily disassembled, yet still remain under warranty – unlike many other sealed-drag reels on the market.
• Made from solid bar stock aluminum.
• Each reel is serialized for identification and protection. The serial # is located UNDER the nameplate on top of the frame next to the reel stand.
• Features a personalized Nameplate engraved free.
• Our Delrin Handle offers positive gripping and quick release.
• Comes with an extra thick Neoprene Case for convenient storage and transportation.
• Made and assembled in the U.S.A.
