The Lamson Guru S HD reel means “Heavy Duty.” The Guru S HD fly reel has both a complete cage design and type II anodization in a Blaze finish. Guru S HD is a phenomenal, affordable Saltwater and/or Spey reel. Steadfast and stylish, Guru has long set a standard as a rugged, fully USA-machined, and ultra-reliable reel at a mind-blowing price. We’ve updated Guru’s spool geometry for enhanced retrieve rates, opened the porting to reduce weight and improve line drying, integrated the counterbalance, and introduced a curved cross section arbor for structural stability. Guru continues to prove that the quest for enlightenment can be anything but boring.
Noted Features:
- Larger diameter (than previous Guru) increases retrieve rate
- Scalloped, narrower arbor improves line handling
- Increased porting reduces weight and improves line drying
- Guru Series II is lighter in overall mass despite larger diameter
- Integrated counterbalance reduces number of parts
