Nautilus CCF-X2 Reels
The Nautilus CCF-X2 has twice the drag strength (20+ lbs), twice the smoothness and half the start-up inertia of the previous CCF model. Winner of the 2013 International Fly Tackle Dealer Show Award for Best Saltwater Fly Reel, the CCF-X2 is completely sealed from saltwater. Nautilus utilizes an oversize drag knob with “infinadjust” range settings and their unique Laser-ID spool for denoting which line you’re using. These features combine to make the Nautilus CCF-X2 the best value saltwater reel on the market. In the years since its introduction, the CCF-X2 has become highly trusted among serious anglers for overall durability and performance. This reel has a terrific track record in both fresh and saltwater and is one of the first reels recommended by our shop staff for the angler who seeks a time-tested reel for a reasonable price.
