Lamson Fly Fishing

During the Summer of 2023 Lamson decided on a name change and now goes by simply as Lamson as the strength of the brand within the Fly Fishing world now standing alone without a need to touch on its history as below.

Waterworks was formed in 1996 when fishermen who happened to be product designers figured a better way to release a fly-caught fish. In 1998, Waterworks acquired Lamson and, along with Waterworks Force reels, now had two brands sharing the core technology and design ethos of simplicity and function-driven styling. The line-up of reels has radiated into specialized niches over time: two handed, salt water, super-arbor, and rugged environments. The pursuit of inspired design and solid engineering has driven Waterworks-Lamson's fly reel innovation for two decades, with no end in sight.
