About this item
- The KastKing Zephyr bait-finesse reel weighs 5.6 oz, combining carbon-fiber lightness and strength with precision gearing and double-shielded stainless-steel bearings after the maker's design and manufacturing process.
- Carbon-fiber frame and side plates reduce weight, with the maker citing carbon's strength-to-weight advantage over steel and lower weight than aluminum. A carbon-disc drag provides a stated 10 lb for fine-line bait-finesse fishing.
- The 6+1 double-shielded stainless bearing system includes free-spinning spool bearings for casting very light baits. Components include precision T7075 hardened-aluminum main gearing, brass pinion, nickel-plated brass worm shaft and an 8-magnet brake.
- Advanced aluminum alloys are used for the laser-engraved anodized shallow spool, main shaft, main gear, black-anodized handle and tension knob. An EVA handle knob supports grip, and a drag clicker provides audible feedback.
- Celluloid paint and anodizing give the reel its clean appearance. The maker recommends it for bait-finesse trout and bass fishing and smaller inshore saltwater species.
