Ross Colorado Spool

The Ross Colorado Spool is a precision-machined replacement or spare spool designed for the Ross Colorado fly reel (2021 and later models; not compatible with the older Colorado LT). Crafted from high-grade 6061-T6 aluminum with a durable anodized finish, it maintains the reel's signature lightweight, open, highly ported aesthetic while offering robust strength.

Key features include:

• Large-arbor design — fast line retrieval, reduced line memory, and smooth line lay
• Semi-caged frame compatibility — matches the reel's modern semi-caged structure
• Vesconite bushing — ultra-smooth, low-friction rotation with classic click-pawl feel
• Push-off spool release — quick, tool-free swapping for fast line changes
• Highly ported spool face — maximizes weight savings

Typical specs (varies by size):

• 2/3 wt: Diameter ≈3.22 inches, weight ≈3.2 oz (spool only), capacity WF3 + 50 yds 20 lb backing
• 4/5 wt: Diameter ≈3.57 inches, weight ≈3.5 oz (spool only)

Available in matching colors like Matte Black, Matte Platinum, Matte Olive, Matte Blue, Matte Chocolate, and others. Anglers use spare spools to carry multiple line setups (dry fly vs. nymph vs. streamer) on one frame. A beautifully engineered, lightweight spare spool — built for quick swaps, high performance, and the classic Ross Colorado experience.
