Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the advantage of the 5.2:1 gear ratio?

A 5.2:1 gear ratio hits the sweet spot for feeder fishing. It provides enough speed to quickly retrieve empty feeders across the surface (helping to avoid bottom snags), while still maintaining the raw winding power necessary to comfortably reel in heavy payload feeders and play larger fish.

Do I need to add backing line to this reel?

No. The spool is specifically designed to have the perfect capacity for 100m of standard 68lb feeder line. You can tie your mainline directly to the spool without wasting time or older line on backing.

Is the handle easy to pack away?

Yes, the reel features a convenient screw-up folding handle. Simply loosen the screw cap, and the handle folds flush against the reel body. This makes it highly compact and easy to store safely inside a ready-rod holdall while remaining attached to your rod.

How does the drag perform during a fight?

The refined front drag is easily accessible at the top of the spool. It is designed to be highly responsive, allowing you to make quick micro-adjustments while playing a fish to ensure a smooth, consistent release of line under pressure
