At the heart of the reel is a customizable click-pawl system built around removable and replaceable pawls. Each reel includes multiple pawls that can be mixed and matched to create up to 10 different configurations, allowing anglers to adjust both tension and sound to their preference—from a subtle creekside tick to a louder, classic click.

At $249, it becomes the first fully machined Ross reel under $299, making American-made performance more accessible than ever.
