The introduction of the Evolution was the most successful launch in Ross Reels' thirty-year history. Although the Evolution has only been on the market for one season, it has set the standard by which all large arbor reels are judged. The first time you pick up the Evolution you will know right away that this reel defines perfection - in every way. The Evolution balances perfectly with today's lightweight rods. It is also guaranteed to handle any species your rod can match. Because a durable drag system is only one component of a perfect reel, great time was invested in developing a drag system that is also precise and sensitive, capable of protecting the lightest tippets even when battling world-class fish.
