Cimarron Fly Reel – Chartreuse
Named after the Cimarron River just outside our home in Colorado, the Cimarron reel carries the spirit of the West—rugged, wild, and untamed.
Originally introduced in the 1980s, the Cimarron quickly became a cornerstone of the Ross lineup. This modern version honors that legacy with updated engineering and durability for today’s anglers.
Designed as the perfect entry point into the Ross family, the Cimarron features a drag system based on our trusted Animas reel, a fully anodized frame and spool, and a premium Cerakote drag knob for easy, precise adjustments and added resistance to drops and dings.

The Cimarron reel is solid and easy to handle. The drag system works smoothly and the Cerakote knob is durable. I’ve used it on several trout streams and it holds up well in the field.

Great value for a beginner fly reel. The anodized build feels sturdy and the drag is responsive. It’s not the most advanced model, but it does the job well in typical fly fishing conditions.

I bought this for my son who just started fly fishing. The color is vibrant and the reel feels balanced. The drag adjustment is simple and precise, which helps with casting and landing fish.
