REVOLUTIONARY DRAG ADJUSTMENT
GTS 5/6 and 7/8: The first full turn of the drag knob gives you 90% of the usable drag for light tippet dry fly or nymphing. When using heavier tippets for streamers or targeting species like bonefish or baby tarpon, the second turn will provide 90% of the drag you need. And if you need to break off a fish quickly—just half a turn more, and your tippet will snap.
New on the GT reels, Nautilus introduced a groundbreaking feature never before seen in a reel. The spool release cap now boasts a 7/8” (22 mm) hex shape—the same size as your car’s lug nuts—so if it ever gets stuck, you can remove it with a standard socket.
