from 189 reviewsI own 3 Waterworks. Oldest is 15 years, a 3.4 force. I'm very hard on my equipment. Fished mainly Salt, been emersed in Salt more times than I can count. Caught countless fish without fail. Other than a fresh water rinse, none have never had a thorough cleaning and still work like new. Try that with any other brand ?
Only thing I've had to replace is the plastic clicker on the 3.4.
This 12 wt Litespeed is lighter and bigger than my first 2 reels. Haven't had a chance to test it on monster Tarpon yet but know already that I'm prepared for battle with serious equipment. Let you know in November when I return from Costa Rica.

Reel showed up very quick and is exactly as advertised . Really wish I could get the Cinder color too

Love my guru reels! Lost one with my sage rode in July at Aspen. Luckily had a guru reel. Ordered the spool and I'm off to fish again. Only fish with Guru reels. Great customer support!

I love my Guru Series II. I had a cheap Wetfly reel and replaced it with the Series II on my all-purpose 6wt two years ago. Perfect for the river and lake fishing I do. Finally got around to looking at sinking lines, so picked up this spare spool--which functions exactly like the original. I LOVE that you can get spares for a legacy product. It seems so rare these days that a company continues to support past generations of a product and more companies should do it. Thanks Lamson!!!

You have to decide what kind of fishermen you are. Are you gonna impress people with your expensive fancy equipment. Or are you going to let the fish you catch speak your truth. If you lean towards the ladder, this is your reel. This is a no fuss, no BS reel. It gets the job done, isn’t two heavy, handles lots of abuse. And performs better then a lot of reels 3x the price. I have this reel in the 5+ and the 7+. Both work great and I love the classic sound they make. Save your money, buy the liquid. You won’t look back.

I have fallen in love with Lamson Reels, and am adding lots of extra Spools.
What a fun way to fish with a menu of Spools to choose from, loaded with various lines for targeting the fish I want.
This has upped my game and success! For real!

I tackle trophy bows and browns in North Georgia each fall. The Velocity 5wt gives me a degree of control when fighting trout that are pushing 10# and are in current. This rod is a go-to for any trout angler around the country!!!

I have been using the new LSM 8 for about a year now. Paired with a Cobalt 8wt rod, it's about as deadly a combo as I can put in my clients' hands. It has the power to tackle <40# tarpon in the summer and the delicacy to land small crustacean flies on 8# tippet to our spooky Tampa Bay redfish in the winter. The reel is more than capable to stop any of my targets in their tracks while preserving light tippets. The reel is a home run!!!!

This rod/reel combo is amazing. Bought because it was on sale and I wanted a backup, it quickly became my primary go to rod.

The Liquid series reels are quite impressive. Drag system works perfect. I now have a 5wt and the 3 pack 8wt. The 3 pack is so convenient. Changing from float to sink is a snap! I have landed several large fish with these reels and function is perfect!! Thanks Lamson!

Fits perfectly. The thick material offers great protection.

Bought this awhile back now and it’s been the best reel I’ve ever owned! It’s never failed to disappoint while being able to survive harsh conditions on the water without a problem.

I purchased this Remix reel with extra spools because the spools also fit my grandkids reels that I gave them for Christmas a few years back, and they are hard on equipment. We live and fish in Alaska. We all fish for sockeye salmon with 9 weight rods and reels. The customer support I have received is excellent. The drags on all of the different reels are outstanding. I fished yesterday with the new remix and it was just as expected great. Caught a limit of sockeye also. Thanks Waterworks-Lamson.

I would love to have this reel in all black, black/slate, or black silver. The bright blue/silver combo, while pretty, is just a bit flashy for what I want. I prefer a reel that is more of a neutral color that can put on various rods without clashing. Thank you for listening and responding to customers!
