Temple Fork Outfitters, Terry Hayden Fly Reel

TFO Terry Hayden Fly Reels
We've teamed up with famed Australian reel designer Terry Hayden to create a new reel that is designed to battle the strongest fish in the ocean. Machined from 6061 marine grade aluminum and Type III Hard Anodized, TFO's Hayden reels are built tough for a lifetime of service. Hard Anodization penetrates the base metal becoming an integral part of the material while building up on the surface creating a finish that is harder and more durable than those found on the most expensive reels. Three stainless steel bearings and a large surface area cork drag are combined for smooth start up and positive stopping power. Three sizes cover your big game needs. FREE Shipping on this item!

It can be immersed in warm soapy water to dissolve any salt buildup, which may be in the reel, but this process is unnecessary as the Anodizing process eliminates the need. Anti-corrosive products such as spray polishes, and oils etc. are not required, but may preserve the long-term aesthetics of the reel. Lubrication High quality grease, such as Cal's 2 Speed, should be applied to: Both pawls where they contact the teeth of the drag plate The threads on the draw bar The spindle where it contacts the bearings within the spool Drag Surface Cork drags perform best and last longest if they are kept lubricated; we prefer a thin film of Cal's 2 Speed Universal Reel & Star Drag Grease. Check the cork surface regularly and lubricate before it dries out. A cork which has dried out loses elasticity and becomes less capable of performing fine adjustments. Removing the Spool Tools Required: A nickel or quarter. Remove the drag knob screw from the center of the drag knob by turning it clockwise (reverse thread). Turn the drag knob off in the standard counter clockwise direction. Turn the reel over and pull the draw bar out, then remove the spool from the frame. Reversing the Retrieve Follow procedure above for removing the spool. The geared drag plate pulls out with no tools necessary. To reassemble, place the drag plate over the spindle and on top of the pawls. For right-hand retrieve, turn the drag plate clockwise while pushing it down towards the frame until both pawls click into place against the teeth of the drag plate. The procedure for left-hand retrieve is identical, except that you must turn the drag plate counter clockwise as you push it down onto the pawls. Replace the spool on the spindle and reverse the disassembly procedure above, keeping in mind that the drag knob screw tightens counter clockwise.
