With a gear ratio of 5.3 and a retrieve rate of 80 cm per turn, this reel strikes a balance between power and speed, allowing you to maintain a steady, controlled pace without excessive effort.

This reel is optimized for PE line, with a capacity of 0.8-200m. It is designed for light-tackle precision, so using significantly heavier lines may reduce your casting distance and overall performance.
