Galvin Grip Series Fly Reels

The Galvan Grip Series Fly Reel combines Galvan’s proven drag performance with a fully sealed hub design, providing additional protection for the reel’s drag system. It is designed for anglers who demand dependable performance in challenging freshwater and saltwater environments.

Inside the Grip is Galvan’s 3-pawl drag engagement system paired with a carbon-fiber drag surface for powerful, smooth drag performance. Minimal startup inertia helps the reel transition smoothly into a run, while the oversized handle provides additional leverage and control when fighting strong fish.

The Grip is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and protected with a Type II saltwater-safe anodized finish. Its combination of a sealed hub, rugged construction, and proven Galvan drag makes it a highly capable reel for demanding anglers. 2026 CATALOG
