Shilton Fly Reels
Welcome to the Shilton fly reels collection at Lost Coast Outfitters, where durability, performance, and serviceability are top priorities. Shilton Reels is a premium manufacturer known for designing reels with open, full-access cork drag systems that are easy to maintain in the field — ideal for saltwater and remote conditions.
The Shilton SR Series is the flagship saltwater line we currently feature. Built from solid 6082 T6 high-grade bar-stock aluminum, the SR series delivers heightened stopping power through its large-diameter cork drag, while minimizing start-up inertia. Robust and reliable, the SR models are engineered to handle extreme environments where corrosion, sand, and abuse test gear the hardest.
On this page you’ll find detailed specifications, sizing guidance, and performance breakdowns for the Shilton fly reels we stock, along with pairing advice to match your reel with appropriate rods, line weights, and target fisheries. Invest in a reel that’s built for salt, designed for longevity, and serviced by you — that’s the promise behind Shilton.
