New for 2026 comes the new Ross Cimarron Creek Fly Reel — a reimagined classic built for anglers who value feel over frills. Designed, machined, and assembled in Montrose, Colorado, the Cimarron Creek brings Ross craftsmanship to a lightweight click-pawl platform built to fish hard and sound right.
At $249, it becomes the first fully machined Ross reel under $299, making American-made performance more accessible than ever.
At the heart of the reel is a customizable click-pawl system built around removable and replaceable pawls. Each reel includes multiple pawls that can be mixed and matched to create up to 10 different configurations, allowing anglers to adjust both tension and sound to their preference—from a subtle creekside tick to a louder, classic click.
Additional pawls are available for purchase, and for anglers who want to take customization even further, Ross offers downloadable e-files that allow you to 3D print your own pawls at home, experimenting with different materials, colors, and designs.
The Ross Cimarron Creek pairs a clean, minimalist design with lightweight performance and crisp audible feedback. From high-country creeks to backcountry cutthroat missions, it’s built to fish—not fuss.
