Throughout the years, Islander has become a passion for people from all walks of life. For some, it is the smooth, hand polished edges and well proportioned features which appease the tactical sense.
For others, it is the overwhelming feeling of precision and craftsmanship, and the trust that has built up over years of flawless performance. Whatever your reason for choosing an islander, you can be assured the experience it will bring you will, like the reel itself, last a lifetime.
Islander Reels have an impressive track-record of durability under extremely demanding conditions. All components (other than screws, o-rings, and bearings) are precision machined from solid materials, and then hard finished to perfection. Our dedicated team of machinists and craftsmen take great pride in the finished product, and we hope you get as much enjoyment out of using the reels as we do making them.
Islander warrants its fly reels, for the lifetime of the original purchaser, against defects in materials and workmanship. out commitment to produce the finest reels possible means that we reserve the right to update or change our product specifications.
