Details
On the water
The micro-click adjustment is what you notice first — small, repeatable increments, so you can add pressure mid-fight without overshooting and pulling a hook. The ceramic line guide handles the heat of a fast run better than a metal one. The rotor is asymmetric, which shifts weight where it balances rather than where it is convenient, and the whole body is cut thin to keep it light on the rod.
What it does
Carbon fibre 3-disc brake, 17 lb / 8 kg
Three carbon discs delivering up to 8 kg of drag, smoothly and consistently.
Micro-click adjustment
Repeatable increments you can feel, so drag changes mid-fight are deliberate.
CNC machined aluminium spool
Machined aluminium, for the part of the reel under the most direct load.
Ceramic line guide
A heat-resistant ceramic guide, which matters on long, fast runs.
Asymmetric rotor
A lighter rotor design that shifts mass toward balance.
Screw-in handle, removable EVA knob
Both come apart for cleaning, servicing or replacement.
Shielded sliding button
A shielded button design intended to keep water and dust out of the mechanism.
Why we carry it
Most reels at this level get the spool right and the drag wrong. Carbon fibre discs and a micro-click adjuster are the specification you would look for on a reel costing considerably more, and the serviceable handle means it stays good rather than slowly getting worse.
