Cheeky Fly Reels

You know that feeling when you drop your fly a couple feet ahead of a tailing fish—heart beating, hands shaking you strip, strip … and WHAM the water erupts and the fly is devoured. In the same second the line goes taught and the fish takes off. You’re on.

That’s what Cheeky Fly Fishing is all about.

We are fly fishing addicts. Our waders are always wet and our rods and reels spend more time rinsing in the shower than we do. Inspired by that heart-pounding moment when a fish explodes on the fly and all hell breaks loose, we are thrill seeking, adrenaline driven, extreme fly fishermen. In 2009 we set out to deliver products aligned with our inspiration.

Cheeky Fly Reels are designed specifically for progressive fly fishermen. We are committed to developing the highest quality reels available designed to emphasize style rather than tradition. Since 2009, we’ve been passionate about two things – satisfying our obsession for fly fishing and developing reels for fly fishermen who seek to push the limits of the sport.

Whether you’re a bonefish guide in Belize or a troutbum in the Rockies, you demand the same from your equipment: performance, dependability and style. No matter where you fish or what species you target, Cheeky Fly Fishing will give you the confidence you need on the water. Join the movement…Get Cheeky.

We have heard a million fly fishing stories. The best ones are not about the biggest fish or the one that got away, but those days when the fish are stacked up like pancakes. Tailing redfish or bonefish as far as the eye can see, schools of stripers ten deep against the rocks, or an epic five fish day on your favorite steelhead or Atlantic salmon river is what the Mojo 425 is all about.

Features and Specifications

KarbonEVO Drag System: Cheeky Fly Fishing utilizes a titanium shaft and an innovative weave of carbon fiber in its evolutionary sealed disk drag system. Stacked alternating stainless steel and carbon fiber discs provide durability, stopping power, heat dissipation and a smooth startup for those blistering runs. The entire drag package is sealed by aerospace grade o-rings, nothing gets in or out, ensuring the drag’s superior performance for the life of the reel.
MAX Arbor: Cheeky Fly Fishing is pushing the limits of large arbor design to the max. The MAX Arbor on all Cheeky Fly Reels reduces line memory and pushes line retrieval rates to a new level.

B2 Channel: Cheeky Fly Reels hold about 30% more line than other large arbor reels. The B2 Channel, a reserve backing bank, increases line capacity dramatically without compromising arbor.
Lightweight: Lighter is better. Why put a heavy reel on that brand new “lightest rod in the world” you just picked up? By eliminating unnecessary metal from its design, Cheeky Fly Fishing has mastered the concept of lightweight, large arbor reels without compromising strength.

TiLock Mating System: Cheeky’s titanium mating system allows fly fisherman to change spools quickly by utilizing a hand tightening screw knob that’s durable and secure. Toolbox not required.

Stealth Mode: Cheeky Fly Reels are equipped with an easily removable clicker plate. If you prefer a stealthier approach, just remove the plate.
Simple L/R Retrieve Conversion: No more trips to the fly shop, or worse yet, post office. Changing from left to right hand retrieve is as simple as flipping the bearing in the comfort of your own home.
