Islander TR3 Mooching Reel

Fishing in the Pacific Northwest will never be the same. With a fully sealed disk drag, corrosion-free ceramic bearings, ported paddle handles, and two-tone finish, the Islander TR3 sets a new standard in salmon trolling excellence.

It’s hard to beat the excitement of fighting large fish on a single-action reel. The fun factor is off the charts! Islander TR3 was designed for Canada-style mooching rods used in trolling applications. Since this reel is made for trolling, there is no free-spool on this reel. The reel spool and frame are machined out of 6061-T6 aluminum and the spindle is 316 stainless steel. The drag material is an ultra-high performance fluoropolymer material with a very low coefficient of friction, extreme durability and consistent performance in a variety of conditions. These drag washers are stacked between layers of stainless steel.

The entire drag system is fully sealed, preventing corrosion or debris from damaging it, and it is virtually maintenance-free. Bearings are ceramic, so they don’t corrode either. The large drag knob is easily adjustable over a wide range. The 4.6-inch spool provides really fast line pickup to catch up to fast-running fish. The Islander TR3 will hold 350 yards of 30-pound-test monofilament. As with all Islander reels, the machined, anodized construction and corrosion-resistant components result in a beautiful, tough reel that will last a lifetime, and then some.
