Bauer RVR fly reels pair carefully machined construction with a smooth, fully sealed carbon fiber drag. Rather than simply scaling one design up or down, the RVR series tailors arbor diameter, capacity, drag torque, and weight to different trout-fishing applications.
Choose from Black / Gold or Charcoal / Silver in the RVR 2/3, 4/5, and 6/7 models offered here. From small-stream dry-fly fishing to throwing streamers on larger water, each size provides a setup suited to its intended line weights.
Choose Your Model
RVR 2/3: Designed for 2- and 3-weight rods on small streams and spring creeks, with capacity and drag suited to lighter-line trout fishing.
RVR 4/5: A versatile choice for 4- and 5-weight rods, larger trout water, and varied techniques with floating lines or light sink tips.
RVR 6/7: Increased capacity for heavier trout lines, streamers, stillwater fishing, and large or wind-resistant flies. Suited to floating, intermediate, and sinking-line applications.
