Powerful IPX6-sealed spinning reel with 24kg drag and high-speed gear. Smooth, balanced, and built for NZ anglers targeting kingfish, snapper, and trout.
Engineered for serious strength and smooth control, this waterproof spinning reel is built to perform in New Zealand’s toughest conditions. With IPX6-rated protection, it’s fully sealed against water intrusion, ensuring reliability through surf spray, rain, and salt exposure. The carbon fibre frame and CNC aluminium rotor deliver power with minimal weight, creating a refined balance that feels solid yet effortless in hand.
A precision 5+1 stainless-steel bearing system delivers fluid rotation even under heavy drag loads, while an additional polymer roller bearing enhances line management. The sealed carbon drag system provides up to 24 kg of stopping power, offering smooth, steady resistance during long runs. Fast gear ratios across models ensure efficient retrieves when chasing hard-fighting fish in both salt and freshwater.
From offshore battles with kingfish to casting for snapper or trout, this reel’s sealed body and reinforced construction give anglers the confidence to push limits. TPE handle grips maintain traction when wet, providing comfort and control throughout demanding sessions. Designed for endurance, it blends precision engineering with long-lasting durability for performance you can feel.
