Make every rod legendary with the iconic look of Banquet and the award-winning quality of a limited edition Animas Ross Reel. With it, we celebrate two long-standing Western legacies forged through grit and a love for the outdoors. This partnership for conservation gives back to four major river systems through Trout Unlimited’s Embrace A Stream grant program.
The Coors Banquet golden frame is accented by a machined silhouette of the Colorado mountains in Ross Reels’ backyard. Its uniquely ported design and structural profile are eye-catching industry firsts. The Coors Banquet bottle cap inspired drag knob sports an updated aesthetic with a lower profile and increased grip. An improved composite drag system delivers more power in an established Ross design used and loved by more than 80,000 fly anglers the world over.
A fully-redesigned frame and spool are highlights of the new Animas. The spool shows off the cutting-edge manufacturing techniques Ross Reels has developed, delivering a design that is incredibly strong and visually stunning. The Animas also re-joins the family by incorporating an ultra-light canvas phenolic handle which gets tackier when wet. A new trouble-free spool release yields zero-maintenance performance, allowing the Animas to be ready for any freshwater excursion.
