Key Technologies

At the heart of this reel is the Air Drive Design family, delivering a lighter, more connected feel and a smoother retrieve. The Monocoque body provides rigidity without adding bulk, while the drive system and shielded components are engineered to resist wear under pressure. These design choices work together to offer a stable platform when casting or fighting fish.

• Air Drive Design suite: rotor, bail, spool, and shaft work in harmony for a responsive feel
• Monocoque body: one-piece aluminum construction for stiffness and stability
• Tough Digigear: durable gearing built to handle extended use
• ATD TYPE-L drag: smooth, immediate resistance when a bite comes in
• LC-ABS (Long Cast ABS): enhanced casting distance and line release
• Magsealed line roller: reduced wear and smoother line management

This model balances well in the hand, with a weight of about 11.4 oz (290 g) and a gear ratio of 6.2. Each handle turn yields roughly 41.3 inches (105 cm) of winding, helping you cover water efficiently. The maximum drag is rated at 2.6 lbs (12 kg), offering a confident fighting capability without overburdening the line.
