Ultralight 160g Design

At just 160g, this reel reduces wrist fatigue during long fishing sessions. The carbon fibre grip further lightens the load while providing excellent corrosion resistance for saltwater use.

Smooth 7.2:1 Gear Ratio

Fast retrieval speed lets you quickly work lures and cover more water. The dual bearing system with 6+1 hybrid ceramic bearings ensures buttery-smooth cranking even under load.

🧲

Strong Magnetic Brake System

Nine high-strength magnets provide adjustable braking force to prevent backlash and line tangles. Perfect for beginners learning to cast or experienced anglers throwing into wind.

Drag Alert Sound Feature

Audible clicking when fish take line helps you judge the fight without watching your spool. The 5kg drag capacity handles solid Australian species with confidence.

Hybrid Ceramic Bearings for Saltwater Durability

The hybrid ceramic bearing system offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel bearings, making this reel ideal for chasing Australian saltwater species. Whether you're fishing estuaries in NSW or rock platforms in WA, these bearings maintain smooth operation even after exposure to salt spray and harsh conditions.

Dual Bearing System for Stable Casting

A suspension bearing on the pinion gear stabilises the mesh between main and small gears, eliminating wobble during casting. This translates to longer, more accurate casts and reduced line twist when working soft plastics or hard-bodied lures.

Carbon Fibre Washer Brake with 5kg Drag

The carbon fibre drag washer combined with brass gears delivers a maximum drag force of 5kg—plenty of stopping power for flathead, bream, and small kingfish. The smooth, progressive drag prevents sudden line breaks when fish make their first run.

“Took this out on the Hawkesbury targeting flathead and was impressed by how light it feels after a full day's fishing. The magnetic brake saved me from several bird's nests while I got used to it. Landed a 65cm flatty without any drama—drag was smooth as butter.”

“Perfect for flicking soft plastics in the Moreton Bay shallows. The 7.2:1 ratio lets me work lures quickly through the strike zone. After three months of regular saltwater use, it's still casting smoothly with no corrosion on the bearings.”

“Bought this for my son who's learning to baitcast and the adjustable brake system made the learning curve much easier. We've been fishing the Derwent estuary and he's already landed several decent bream. Great value for a starter reel.”

“Lightweight design is a game-changer when you're casting all day from the rocks. Used it on a recent trip to Rottnest and the drag alert sound helped me land a nice tailor without watching the spool constantly. Handles saltwater conditions well.”
