The Rockaway Surf Spinning model features 4BB + 1RB stainless steel bearings and a 5.3:1 gear ratio, delivering steady retrieves and a robust drag up to 26 lb. The Rockaway Baitfeeder (RBF) variant shares the 5.3:1 ratio, adds an On\/Off Baitfeeding system, and reaches a higher max drag of 35 lb, supported by 5BB+1RB bearings. Both reels are designed to work with the same Rockaway Surf Rods, ensuring balanced performance and versatile use in varied conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign and durability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction centers on aluminum for durability with a rigid metal handle that reduces flex, paired with an EVA knob for comfortable control.
