Ultralight Carbon Fiber Spinning Reel With High-Speed Drag System
Long days on the water wear on your wrist before they wear on your patience, which is why this spinning reel is built almost entirely from carbon fiber — body, rotor, and side plate all included. At roughly 5.1 oz (145 g) for the lightest size, it barely registers in your hand through a full day of casting, letting you focus on the fish instead of the fatigue. Underneath the light weight sits a genuinely serious drag system, so you’re never trading strength for comfort.
Features
- All-carbon build — carbon fiber body, rotor, and side plate keep it among the lightest reels in its class without sacrificing rigidity.
- Smooth, corrosion-resistant retrieve — 10+1 shielded stainless steel ball bearings deliver a consistently smooth, reliable draw.
- High-speed gearing — a 5.2:1 or 6.2:1 gear ratio (depending on size) helps you keep pace with fast, powerful runs.
- Strong, sealed drag — 3 oversized carbon washers deliver up to 33 lbs (15 kg) of drag power, with a sealed rubber ring keeping water and dust out of the drag stack.
- Premium internals — a reinforced anti-corrosion stainless steel main shaft, zinc alloy drive gear, screw-in aluminum handle, hollow nest-shaped spool, and a high-density EVA knob round out the build.
Worth knowing before you order
The 500 and 1000 sizes do not include an anti-reverse switch — every other size does. If a manual anti-reverse switch matters for how you fish, choose the 2000, 3000, or 4000 size.
Available sizes and handle types
Sizes 500 and 1000 are available with either the standard handle or an optional folding handle; sizes 2000, 3000, and 4000 come with the standard handle only.
