Product Details
As the premier reel in the Galvan series, the Torque represents the culmination of a lifetime of fly-fishing and passion for reel design. Simply stated, it represents the very best of modern fly reel architecture. The Torque was created because Boni wanted to create a revolutionary reel with more sufficient drag system than was presently available on the market and it had to be sexy. Thus the Torque was born 
 The unique Torque reel, the 4th series in creation, was the first reel released with our Torque drag system, which is now employed in all of our reels. Its inception was in late 2002 with prototypes coming to life in 2003. After being tested, retested and modified it was finally released to the public in 2004. It immediately won the 2004 Editors choice in Fly Fish America and was ranked #3 in the recent 8-weight reel shootout, beating out all other reels in function and price. Its original style and unique porting has solidified Galvan’s reputation as a leading innovator in the industry. 

 The visually striking appearance of the Torque is a result of the unique cutouts on the frame, spool, drag knob and foot. This design is not only aesthetic but also structural as it significantly reduces the weight of the reel while maintaining strength and increasing rigidity .The rounded rims on both spool and frame enhance durability to better withstand impact during extreme angling conditions. 

 From first glance, the hand is drawn to the reel and from the first crank of the contoured counter balance spool, the quality becomes apparent: efficiency and simplicity driven by function. In this case, less is more and cost is no exception as the Torque retails at half the price of reels in its class.

 The Torque is saltwater safe, and will perform flawlessly under the harshest conditions. From remote alpine lakes to the saltwater flats the highly ventilated spool and frame balance nicely with the lightest of todays fly rods yet still compliments a modern big game saltwater stick. The Torque is tough as nails and skillfully marries the technology of the future with the tradition of the past.

"Very nice"

DMD on 3/22/2023 7:55:39 PM

Review: I really like this reel. The anodized color selection is very nice. I'm usually a traditional looking reel kind of guy, but I went way out of my comfort zone and got this one in orange to match the reels seat and wraps on my Scott Radian and glad I did. Drag is excellent. I know some folk dont like that it takes lots of turns, but that is a positive for me. Kind of gives it an infinite adjustment feel to it. Gorge made it a good deal with the free line offer. I was originally going to get a Broo... More details

"Excellent service"

Danny Rivett on 2/10/2022 9:37:36 PM

Review: The Gorge Fly Shop has been a wonderful resource to me and other members of the Long Beach Casting Club that have mostly gone to Corkers. I recently purchased a pair of waist high G3 waders which turned out to be a little short. No problem, I contacted the shop, sent them back and had the correct size for a trip to the Lower Owens last weekend. I highly recommend a Gorge Fly Shop for the personal service rather than a big box website.

Review: I had a good idea what reel I wanted but I called the shop and had a great conversation with one of the sales people on the brand of reel and the right type of line to order with it. No pressure - just great service. I'll order again here for sure!!!
