Product Description Kapstan Elite saltwater spinning reel has the strongest overall design for offshore deep sea and big game fishing. If you are an avid saltwater angler look no further! Kapstan Elite Spinning Reel is KastKing’s highest level 100% Waterproof fishing reel at IPX6 designation with up to 15 EverSeal rubber rings to keep water out of the main gear. The amazing K.I.S.S. system includes labyrinth-style greased sealing grooves that reduce rotational resistance and provide an innovative water-tight seal.

ATTENTION – MANUAL BAIL DESIGN To reduce line twist we always recommend manually closing the bail arm after making a cast when using any spinning reel. However on the size 3000 & 4000 Kapstan Elite Spinning reels you can turn the handle to close the bail if you prefer. The size 5000/6000 & 8000 Kapstan Elite spinning reels are a different design. These reels require you to manually close the bail to begin the retrieve. PLEASE NOTE – Turning the handle will not close the bail automatically. This is a performance feature on larger saltwater reels and not a defect in the design. Simply make your cast and manually close the bail to begin your retrieve. Its extremely strong CNC aluminum frame makes this a premium saltwater spinning reel. Sizes 3000/4000 have a carbon fiber rotor for strength with reduced weight. Sizes 5000/6000/8000 have a CNC Aluminum Rotor for extra-strength and power fishing. The large power handle and knob provide incredible cranking power. 6 double-sealed never-rust stainless steel polymer bearings provide a superbly smooth feel even in rough conditions. Plus 1 special material bushing that is high-strength and low friction and 1 strong one-way bearing to prevent the flywheel from reversing.
