Nautilus GTR 8/9

Jim Davis owner of 239 Flies hooked me up with the first delivery of the Nautilus GTR 8/9, it’s going to be a best seller. It is very light! Nice large arbor, and a hell of a drag. It is being paired with my 9wt Sage Maverick and a Flats Pro 15’ ghost tip. She’ll be battling Tarpon soon enough!

Orlando Outfitters has them as well. They got them in Friday and picked mine up Saturday. Tarpon & Permit look out!!!

Dumb question, probably - but what’s the red thing by the reel seat?

I like that drag knob. That was one complaint I had on the earlier Nautilus - the knobs were too small and had way too much play in the drag adjustment. The final turn did 80% of the adjustment.

Sweet looking setup. I have an Everglades tibor from 239. Good People.
