Question about item

At Bauer, their mission is to go beyond expectations in design, function, and aesthics with any reel they make. When they looked at building their next saltwater and big game reel, they focused on reliability, strength, and intuitive function. Bauer's vision was clear: Reimagine their time-tested, ultra smooth, and class-leading clutch mechanism by strengthening the system, harness the power of a carbon fiber and stainless-steel drag, and seal it in a bombproof package. Yet, Bauer's ambitions didn’t stop here when designing and build the SLT Fly reel series...

Their construction team set out to revolutionize the way high performance reels should function - a reel that not only offered a powerful drag package, but one that was instinctive, and helped fight giant fish. Anglers require a system that delivers an incremental adjustment range with every click of the drag knob. Seeing this void in the market, brought them to true innovation - to build a reel that showcases the ultimate in consistency and performance, yet displays unequaled aesthetics - the pinnacle of success and pride of ownership when fishing in demanding environments. With meticulous attention to each nuance, they forged ahead, with over four years of prototyping, each iteration honed by real-world experiences until arriving at the intersection of performance, usability, and design. In the end, Bauer's new reel is not just built, but born from the flats, jungle backwaters, and off shore environments, specifically for any demanding angler’s pursuit of perfect performance.

The newly designed drag system is powered by a cutting-edge, alternating stainless steel and carbon discs stack, that effectively disperses heat and facilitates ultra-smooth engagement when fighting the world’s most powerful fish. An oversized low-durometer rubber O-ring provides consistency throughout the drag adjustment range, allowing for even resistance with every click of the drag knob. Many competitors’ drag systems inconsistently increase pressure - either too quickly or too slowly. The SLT’s drag is linear with every click, allowing anglers to dial in their settings for the perfect amount of resistance. Additionally, the new drag stack features a high and low-end hard stop, preventing over-tightening and free spooling.

Clutch: The SLT features a re-imagined and incredibly smooth clutch mechanism. Inspired by the tried-and-true clutch that revolutionized the fly reel industry for two decades, the re-imagined clutch seamlessly transitions from the highest drag settings and provides ultimate smoothness when fighting unforgiving fish. All internal componentry has been made larger for easy handling, tighter tolerances, and is made to take higher heat and torque that come with fishing for tarpon, giant trevally, and arapaima among others.

Fully Sealed Carbon Drag: Featuring a fully water- and debris-sealed system, hardcore anglers can rest easy knowing the SLT can withstand days of saltwater, mud, sand, and dirt without fail.

The SLT 7/8/9 reel is the ultimate flats companion, purpose-built for pursuing bonefish, redfish, striper and Large Bass. Designed to excel in saltwater environments, this reel features a re-engineered, fully sealed Bauer drag system that stands up to the toughest runs. Its smooth, powerful drag and generous capacity make it ideal for 7, 8, and 9 weight rods.

The SLT 9/10/11 is your all-around workhorse. This reel is built to stop anything and everything from GT’s and Tarpon to Arapaima and Roosters. Whether you're traveling deep into the Jungle or to a remote Atol this reel is built to meet the demands of the extreme big game angler. The SLT 11/12+ is a high-performance fly reel engineered for the demands of blue water fishing, targeting powerful species like tuna and marlin. Featuring a cutting-edge drag system capable of delivering up to 15 pounds of smooth, reliable resistance, this reel provides anglers with the stopping power needed to control large pelagic fish.
