Advantages and key strengths of the Devaux OROK Reel
This reel stands out for its 100% French manufacturing quality and a collaborative design involving local experts and subcontractors. The geared anti-reverse ensures ultra-fast line retrieval, ideal for controlling fights with active fish while reducing angler fatigue thanks to the geared handle. Its progressive Teflon drag provides precise control over hooked fish with exceptional smoothness. The spool geometry ensures optimal lay, drastically reducing bird’s nests and ensuring smooth line release on every cast. The aerospace aluminum resists wear and corrosion to last across seasons, even in demanding environments.

Usage tips and recommended setups
The OROK pairs ideally with intermediate to expert fly rods. The offset line exit axle minimizes friction and supports modern casting techniques such as spey and strong roll casts. Use 20 lb backing (up to 60 meters) to secure fights, and prefer fly lines in sizes 2 to 6 for versatile performance. Thanks to its width and large diameter, the reel facilitates consistent spooling during river runs or on larger waterbodies. To ensure longevity and performance, rinse the reel with fresh water after each outing—especially in saltwater—and lightly grease the stainless axle each season.
