Introducing. The G2! The Fair Chase G2, the latest in Cubalayas line of angler-focused, analog-centric Fair Chase Reels, leans on the successes of its predecessor while offering several experience-driven, battle-tested developments and upgrades. Weve shaved weight from the 4.5 spool, widened the line carrying area to 1.2, re-engineered the spindle collar, reinforced the reel foot, and fully enclosed the frame so to keep fly and running lines firmly in place. Saltwater or freshwater, two hand switch or spey, the lightweight (10.9oz) and ergonomically-friendly Fair Chase G2 offers unmatched versatility. So much so, weve neglected to even assign a line designation to it; having fished the Fair Chase G2 from an 8wt on Bonefish and Redfish all the way up to a 12wt on Giant Trevally and Tarpon, we can definitively report, no task is too tall for the G2. After all, the Fair Chase doesnt catch fish, you do!
