Amundson TMX 5 Mooching Reel
Built for anglers who appreciate simplicity, control, and the unmistakable feel of direct-drive fishing, the Amundson TMX5 mooching reel has earned its reputation as one of the Pacific Northwest's most trusted mooching reels.
At the heart of the TMX5 is Amundson's multi-layer Nano Carbon drag system, delivering exceptionally smooth startup, consistent pressure, and virtually no line creep while trolling. The large arbor design promotes faster line retrieval and reduced line memory, while the fully machined aluminum construction provides the strength and corrosion resistance demanded by serious salmon anglers.
The result is a reel that feels equally at home suspended in a downrigger release, free-spooling a herring in a tide rip, or battling a mature Chinook determined to find the horizon. The oversized drag knob allows for precise adjustments on the water, and the reel can be configured for either left or right-hand retrieve.
Chrome & Quill selected the TMX5 because it complements the same philosophy that guides our rod designs: dependable performance, thoughtful engineering, and no unnecessary complexity. It simply does its job exceptionally well.
