The two most common cartridge systems are made by BFR and STH. Chances are the Fenwick is made by either one of these companies.

fenwick cartridge reels
Hi Dan,
I found the Fenwick cartridge fly reels and spools on the web. I think they are made in England by the British Fly Reel Company now owned by the Orvis Company. British Fly Reel Company makes lots of low end fly reels for many companies like SA and Cortland too. Orvis had so many Battenkill made there, they decided to buy it 5 to 10 years ago? It looks strangely similar to the original (non-large arbor) Rocky Mountain by Orvis. I don't think you will get hurt for $44.95 for a reel and $12.95 for a cartridge. http://www.fishusa.com/tackleshop/ca...V2CPW7TJ7BD67A -- Bill Kiene Kiene's Fly Shop Sacramento, CA www.kiene.com "Dan" wrote in message ...

Both my son and I have had BFR Dragonflies (the original version of the Orvis RM) and never have had any problems. The price is decent.
