Waterworks Litespeed F-Series Fly Reel. The LSF is the freshwater version of the new Litespeed. The chassis is based on the conical system found in our other reels with the addition of a click stop drag knob and a unique spring set that creates a linear progression of torque with very fine resolution at the light end of its range. LSF spool and frame architecture is super-arbor in scale for high retrieve, but spare and open to promote line drying and, of course, reduce weight.

Waterworks Lamson Speedster S-Series Reel. Waterworks Lamson have always believed that form shouldn’t just follow function, but be inspired by it, and that good design emanates from a harmonious expression of both. Where fly reels are concerned, the basic parameters - weight, retrieve rate, line storage, drag torque, ergonomics - each must be balanced against the other to build a high-performing reel, and collectively provide the basis for the design. By far the most important of these are we

Waterworks Lamson Fly Reels: Compare the Designs

Explore Waterworks Lamson fly reels, including Liquid S, Remix S, Guru, Litespeed, Speedster and Purist II. Differences in construction, drag mechanism and frame design distinguish the ranges, alongside dedicated Euro nymphing and saltwater models.

Liquid S or Remix S?

The Liquid S uses a pressure-cast aluminium frame and spool, with a large-arbor design and sealed conical drag.

The Remix S combines a CNC-machined aluminium frame with a pressure-cast spool. Choose Remix S if you want the machined frame while retaining the shared S-Series spool platform.

Both offer 3-Pack options containing one complete reel and two additional spools. This gives you three spools for keeping different fly lines ready to change over.

Guru S, Guru E and Guru HD

The Guru collection includes fully machined Guru S reels and the specialist Guru E for Euro nymphing.

Guru HD models use a complete cage design. Guru S, E and HD therefore identify different configurations, rather than simply different colours of the same reel.

Litespeed and Speedster Versions

The Litespeed selection includes freshwater F-Series and dedicated Marine versions. The Marine designation identifies a separate saltwater range, not just a larger freshwater size.

The Speedster range includes standard and HD versions. The exact version matters when identifying the frame configuration or buying a matching spare spool.

Purist II: A Different Drag Mechanism

The Purist II combines a click-and-pawl mechanism with a super-large arbor and narrow profile. It is the alternative to consider if you prefer that simpler mechanism rather than the sealed-drag approach used by other Lamson ranges.

Dedicated Saltwater Models

Saltwater options include Litespeed Marine, Liquid Max and Centerfire. Follow the care instructions for the individual reel after saltwater use; a sealed drag does not remove the need for cleaning and maintenance.

Sizes and Spare-Spool Compatibility

Lamson sizes such as 3+, 5+, 7+ and 9+ cover recommended line ranges. They should not be interpreted as one identical fly-line weight across every model.

Same-size Liquid S and Remix S spools are interchangeable, but do not fit the previous-generation Liquid and Remix reels. For additional spools, visit our Waterworks Lamson reels and spare spools collection.
