1976 was a hallmark year for the fly fishing world. It was then that Ted Juracsik introduced his first Anti-Reverse Tarpon Reel designated the Billy Pate.
This series now includes three Anti-Reverse models, for rod weights 6-12. No other reel has matched the Billy Pate's durability and dependability day in day out, year after year, regardless of conditions, locale or species. This precision piece of equipment is designed and constructed to withstand the most demanding fly fishing environments. As with all reels that leave Ted's shop, the Billy Pate is virtually maintenance free.
While there are over 225 World Records that attest to its performance, you don't have to be interested in records to appreciate this reel. If you know your fly fishing history, you know this is the reel that set the hook.
Special Features:
* Classic AntReverse design with Satin Gold Frame and Jet Black Spool.
* Corresponding Gamefish Engraving on each model.
* One-piece spool and frame; precision machined from the finest bar
stock aluminum alloy.
* Large diameter impregnated main drag insures ultra-smooth and long
wearing performance.
* Double anti-reverse dogs providing positive, fail-safe action an all
models.
* Each reel is serialized for identification and protection.
* Easy grip, impact resistant delrin handle.
* Comes with an extra thick neoprene case for storage and
transportation.
Maintenance: After each use, Billy Pate reels should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. All reels are lubricated at the factory prior to assembly and relubrication is generally not necessary. Tibor Graphite Lube may be used to lubricate the cork drag disc. Complete warranty and maintenance information is included with each reel. A service tool is included with all new Billy Pate Fly Reels.The tool facilitates quick spool changes or futher takedowns. Features of the service tool include a wrench for the star nut over the handle on anti-reverse models and a properly sized screwdriver blade to prevent screw head damage.
