TIBOR GULFSTREAM

Named after the epic current that forms in the Gulf of Mexico, rounds the Straits of Florida, and then swiftly pushes warm water up the eastern Atlantic, Tibor’s Gulfstream is the first size of their “Tibor Reel” family that lets you get into chasing bluewater pelagics. The third largest reel in their Tibor Reel lineup, the Gulfstream best suits fly rods in weights 11 through 15 and holds 300 yards of backing. With a large arbor, super-powerful drag, and tough construction, the Gulfstream is a reel that can stand up to anything from sailfish and cobia to 100+ pound tarpon.  Quite possibly one of the most timeless saltwater reels on the market since Ted Juracsik introduced it in 1995, the Tibor Gulfstream is like that fine scotch that you bring out only on special occasions, except that it has all of the performance that you need for tough use every time you’re on the water. Heck, Tibor reels have been used to beat records across over 250 different species, and if there’s one reel that’s truly reliable for almost anything, it’s a Tibor. Beautifully crafted out of true state-of-the-art materials, the Gulfstream features an unsealed cork drag–for quick and on-the-fly maintenance–with an ultra-high-quality aluminum frame, and both the incoming and outgoing sound of a Tibor truly are second-to-none. Designed and built in DelRay Beach, Florida, the Gulfstream represents true American craftsmanship and can stand up to generations of long days on the water.
