The 5.5mm thickened carbon fiber layer ensures that the handle remains rigid and unyielding, even under the heaviest loads

Whether you're targeting freshwater bass, inshore saltwater species, or pursuing big game offshore, this casting reel ensures that your casting and retrieving experience is nothing short of absolute perfection
