DESIGN
Our reels are developed by our teams of engineers and designers in Cestas, France.
In the heart of the Gironde and close to numerous fishing spots (large lakes in the South-West, rivers in the Pyrenees and even the Atlantic Ocean), we design, test and improve our products on a daily basis to ensure that they are both light and strong.
Our reels are tested and approved by numerous anglers: staff, customers and fishing guides.
