The Lamson Waterworks ULA Purist II is a premium fly reel that blends minimalist classic mechanics with modern engineering precision. Designed for anglers seeking simplicity, strength, and lightness, it excels in freshwater fly fishing scenarios such as trout or grayling.

Legends never die. A “purist” insists on adherence to traditional rules and structures. The Purist Il is a modern exception with a rich heritage. Composed of only 15 individual parts, Purist II functions flawlessly with minimalist efficiency wrapped in reimagined form.

Featuring a click pawl design, the power is literally in your hands and yes, the clicker sings. Drawing inspiration from its U.L.A. lineage, this reel flaunts a super large arbor with a 30% increase in average line retrieval, defying conventional limits while maintaining the minimal mass of its predecessor. Accompanied by a fortified frame and sleek, narrow profile this is truly a reel in its purest form.

Characteristic:

• Click & Pawl Drag System – A traditional, direct engagement reel mechanism that provides authentic tactile feedback and a satisfying clicking sound during line retrieval, putting control literally in the angler’s hands

Important care tips:

Do not remove the drag knob or the two-holed nut in the center of the drag knob for any reason.

Always ensure the Gland Cap is tight, especially before using the reel the first time or after reversing the retrieve direction. Be sure to periodically check that the cap is on securely; it should always be firmly tightened by hand, do not use a tool. The Gland Cap should seat completely on the drag cylinder when installed properly.

The drag system is meant to operate lubrication free. Do not use any type of oil or lubricant in or around the drag system. A small amount of WD-40 may be applied to the retrieve handle in order to remove any dirt build up between the handle and the handle shaft.

Occasionally rinse your reel thoroughly under fresh running water and wipe the spool and frame to remove any debris or dirt build up. Be sure to wipe down the spindle on the spool and keep it free of debris.
