Lamson Hyperspeed M8 Fly Reel: Crazy Fast!

[@edwardmlotkiewicz2343]

Beautiful reel. I own five Lamson reels: Remix 1.5, Liquid 5+& 7+, Guru S 9+ and a Litespeed G5 11+. Nice but way out of my pocketbook ( as well as wife's patience) range. Thanks for the review.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

Only used Lamson waterworks for freshwater and absolutely love it.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

They make a great product and have for a long time! Thanks for watching.

[@warmwaterstalker]

Woo that’s a wagon wheel there. I bet that’ll bring in the line.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

It sure will! Thanks for watching.

Aesthetically, I can't stand billet aluminum - the less machining the better. Stamped sheet metal is what I like; like the old USA-manufactured Martins. Also, it would be nice to not have so much line capacity. I can't justify anything more massive than 3wt for everyday; 7wt is my heaviest set-up. With the large-diameter design, to have 30-lbs mono pull somewhat clean from your spool is the idea. Last time, I simply carried my homemade leader with me on my largest diameter monofilamnet spool - just to impose less memory on the thickest part. The Hyperspeed M9 looks like a serious reel, can't imagine how it would disappoint.

🤔Lamson cosplaying Hardy Fortuna Regent, at least you only need to turn 360 for full drag on the Hardy

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@slhibbs]

Its not a radical design, its the same as the M8 just bigger. The M12 with a 8wt spool

[@Madriveroutfitters]

@@slhibbs Thanks for watching. Apparently Lamson thinks it’s fairly newsworthy?

[@robgrubb420]

nice gonna be a sick saltwater reel for fast fish.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Most definitely! Thanks for being here.

[@turkN9NE]

I got the 3.5 lamson liquid. such a great reel kit

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Lamson does a great job!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Agreed! We sell a TON of them.

[@bigdrumnc378]

Very nice! Lamson is definitely in the salt game! Brian could you do a review on the liquid max? I absolutely love mine and the braid i have for backing 🤣🤣🤣🤣. You have the best fly videos out there. Thank you!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. Will pass along to Brian.

[@TedJ71]

Nice looking reel ! Already have a Nautilus Silver King, that too has 14” of pickup per revolution. Have had mine for years with no problem. Otherwise I’d probably be getting this one.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Of course....no problems with a Nautilus Silver King. Some of the best fly reels made!

[@chrishenslick5482]

Innovation is always welcome. Some things might flop, but inevitably we get some cool stuff.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching!

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

So . Will I have to go see my Bank Manager for a Loan 🤔

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Not sure of your financial situation? They are certainly not "cheap" though....that's for sure.

[@angussoutter7824]

Yes 😂😂

[@HaleYeahFishing]

Galvan had three torque tournament sizes that were very large diameter. They do not make them anymore and I wish that I still had mine.... They were definitely not as light weight, they were a bluewater reel.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching!

[@MADHIKER777]

Looks fantastic! Now Loop Opti has direct competition! 🐟

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@mikehenderson8578]

I have 4 Lamson reels and 8 spools. They are awesome. But they are not even close to an Able Reel.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

They are actually very able. 😎

[@javicruzito]

Come on the first to do that was Galvan Torque Tournament Serie T14, T16 and T18...the T14 can pull 15.7” of line in every single turn T-16 17.3” and the T-18 an impressive of 18.8”.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Which are no longer made? Why would we make a video about a reel that we can't sell? Gonna stick with stuff that we sell....thanks.

[@javicruzito]

@@Madriveroutfitters 🤣🤣🤣🤡

[@thatonebeone]

i like how skinny and tall it is this how fly reels should be now a days because i use braid line for backing... i just cant justify the price tags reel companies be asking for now days

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@TedJ71]

Braid will dig into the line on the spool and knot, also the fact if it goes through your tip enough it’ll put a groove in it before you know it. Been there done it, in a few seasons of steelhead and salmon it’ll happen .

[@Madriveroutfitters]

@@TedJ71 yes, braid is about the worst thing you can use for backing. Agreed.

[@MopFlyProductions.]

This thing is sweet!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

It certainly is. Thanks for watching.

[@sakarijukarainen2321]

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@GulfSaratoga123]

I believe the Loop opti speedrunner has a wider arbor?

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Wider....or larger? Could be. Not familiar with Loop.

[@GulfSaratoga123]

@@MadriveroutfittersI was gonna say wider but it seems I was wrong! The speedrunner measures 5.2” in diameter while the hyperspeed measures 5.5”. Impressive! I just wish it was full cage so I could use it for my 5wt spey alongside my 8wt saltwater rod.

[@MADHIKER777]

Loop has nearly the same diameter but 1.25" wide.
