The ultimate hybrid.

The Lamson Remix S is a hybrid fly reel combining a CNC‑machined aluminum frame with a pressure‑cast spool, offering strong durability, a sealed conical drag, and large‑arbor performance for freshwater and light saltwater use.

Build & Materials:

  • Hybrid construction — CNC‑machined 6061 bar‑stock aluminum frame for rigidity and durability, paired with a pressure‑cast aluminum spool using Lamson’s pocket‑spar design for strength‑to‑weight efficiency.
  • Finish — Type II anodized frame and polyurethane‑coated spool for corrosion resistance and long-term wear protection.

 

Drag System:

  • Sealed conical drag — Lamson’s proprietary sealed drag offers smooth startup, wide adjustment range, and enough stopping power for trout, bass, carp, and light saltwater species.
  • Larger drag knob — Updated for easier grip and quick adjustments on the water.

Spool & Compatibility:

  • Interchangeable spools — Remix S spools fit Liquid S and Remix S HD reels of the same size; not compatible with older Liquid/Remix generations.
  • Tool‑less spool removal — Simple press‑release system for fast line changes (noted as easy but can drop if not careful).

 

Performance & Arbor:

  • Large‑arbor design — Faster line pickup, reduced line memory, and more consistent drag as line is taken out or retrieved.
  • Retrieve rate — About 8 inches per turn on the 5+ size, typical for mid‑priced reels.
  • Retrieve orientation — Ships left‑hand retrieve; easily converted to right‑hand without tools.

Sizes & Specs:

Lamson sizes the reel for one line weight up or down (e.g., 5+ fits 4/5/6 wt lines).
  • 3+ — 3.35" diameter, 4.3 oz, 100 yds 20# backing
  • 5+ — 3.65" diameter, 4.6 oz, 100 yds 20# backing
  • 7+ — 3.9" diameter, 5.5 oz, 200 yds 20# backing
  • 9+ — 4.45" diameter, 7.2 oz, 250 yds 30# backing

 

HD Version (Remix S HD):

  • Full‑frame design prevents thin running lines from slipping between frame and spool—important for Euro nymphing and Spey setups.
  • Same drag, materials, and spool compatibility as standard Remix S.

 

Colors:  Smoke & Day Break.

 

  • Durable machined frame with better rigidity than fully cast reels.
  • Reliable sealed drag suitable for fresh and saltwater.
  • Interchangeable spools with Liquid S for cost‑effective versatility.
  • Large arbor for fast pickup and reduced line memory. 
The Remix S is a strong fit if you want:
  • A durable, all‑water reel with a sealed drag
  • Large‑arbor performance without paying premium fully‑machined prices
  • Interchangeable spools with Liquid S for multi‑line setups
  • A reel that balances cost, durability, and versatility
If you prioritize ultra‑light weight or a fully machined spool, the Guru S or other mid‑priced reels may be better.
