Over 130 years of handcrafted, luxury, British made centrepin traditional fishing reels
The RIVER SPECIALIST reel, with its distinctly classic and superior aesthetic, takes Centrepin angling with a float or feeder to a new level, offering unbeatable performance to anglers.
The JAMES YOUNG HERITAGE reel was designed for anglers who enjoy trotting for Roach, Chub and Silverfish on flowing water, or for those float fishing for Carp on lakes and still-water.
The Ray Walton, redesigned as the Super Lightweight model with a cutaway backplate and spool, features a unique side cast mechanism that allows the spool to be rotated 90 degrees.
The PURIST reel is the perfect choice for anglers looking for an all-purpose centrepin reel.
The TRITON TRU-PIN bearlingless reel offers anglers a truly traditional Centrepin. Designed for high quality performance and a totally immersive experience.
The Bob James centrepin is purposely designed for Wallis casting. This strong reel can cope with many species and situations and would suit a roving approach.
The 4" Lightweight reel is modelled on the Bob James reel with all the same high quality features. The 4" backplate has been machined out to give an ultra-lightweight construction.
The Super Lightweight reel is modelled on the Bob James Centrepin with the same high quality features, but a cutaway 4.5" backplate for reduced weight.
I’m very excited for what Chris and Vicki will do for the J.W. Young brand and its heritage. A well maintained J.W. Young reel will provide a lifetime of service and still be something you can pass on through the family generations.
A J.W. Young reel may be ‘old school’, but it never goes out of fashion. It’s where tradition meets technology and art mixes with efficiency. It has a timeless quality that is never surpassed. When I use a J.W. Young reel I feel more connected and in tune with my surroundings. There simply is no better choice of centrepin reel out there. They look wonderful, feel sumptuous, and they really do enhance the pleasure of fishing.
JW Young and Sons are simply the best centrepin on the market, in my humble opinion. Everything made screams perfection and precision, with minimal maintenance these pins will last generations. I will be handing mine down to my son. This is all combined with second to none customer service.
The manufacture and presentation of my Triton is just pure quality and an excellent reel to use. Overall I'm absolutely overwhelmed with the reel.
A fantastic, personal one to one experience with expert help and advice. True customer service, thank you!
