This is the new HD version of the very popular Lamson Liquid reel. The reel has a full frame and therefore a continuous frame so that it is not possible for a thin shooting line to slip out between the spool and the housing. Perfect for monofilament shooting lines on the coast.

Let’s face it, die-cast wheels are supposed to be a low-cost alternative to machine-made wheels, right?

Imported. Heavier. Easier to damage. Boring. But no more!

When Waterworks created Liquid, they focused solely on the benefits that the die casting process can offer.

Structurally, you can do things with molds that you can’t with a machine: Full-radius compound curves. Near-zero radius interior corners. And for precision fit and finish, they go back and machine the molded part in critical areas – amplifying the best aspects of both worlds.

Waterworks has also pushed other boundaries. How much of a wheel at this price can they make in the US? Quite a bit, it turns out. It’s a good mix, too.

Liquid’s high-quality castings are imported, but the components critical to the drag system are CNC machined in the USA.

Liquid wheels are assembled in Boise along with their highest priced wheels. No other wheel in this price range boasts as much American content and quality control.

We are very impressed by the high quality at the low price.
