Black Walnut Handreel

Luxurious Walnut Handreels for Backpack Fishing

One of the most abundant trees across the Northeastern United States, Black Walnut ranges from pale brown to a rich chocolate color with occasional deep swirl patterns in its grain. A signature of quality craftsmanship, Black Walnut is found in fine furniture, well-made gunstocks, and other premium items. The most luxurious of the domestic hardwoods, this reel is recommended for those looking for a premium experience of backcountry angling.

Daggerfish Handreels are handcrafted fishing kits that combine a rod, reel, and tackle box into one ultralight package.

Designed for handline fishing, these reels have no moving parts - simply tie on a lure, cast out by hand, and reel back in by hand.

Lightweight, compact, and extremely portable, it meets TSA requirements for carry-on bags, so whether you’re tossing it into your backpack, bike bag, kayak, or glove box, the Daggerfish can help you turn every trip into a fishing trip.

Each kit comes with 30 yards of 8-lb premium monofilament fishing line, a lead-free tackle kit, and a wooden hand reel with 3.8 cubic inches of built-in storage space.
