Bates Fishing Co. The EDC 100 Casting Reel – Matte Black 100

Bates Fishing Co. The EDC 100 Casting Reel – The E.D.C. is the reel youâ ll grab without thinking twice â built tough, priced right, and ready to fish every single day. With a cast aluminum frame, itâ s lightweight and durable enough to handle daily abuse without breaking the bank. This is Bates’ most utilitarian reel yet â no frills, no fuss, just dependable performance on and off the water. But what really sets the E.D.C. apart is whatâ s under the hood: all-new Digitally Assisted Brake (D.A.B.) system. This isnâ t your average cast control. The E.D.C. uses a built-in digital chip and electromagnetic braking to automatically adjust the brake in real-time as you cast. It senses spool speed thousands of times per second and applies just the right amount of resistance at every stage â harder at high speeds to stop backlash, lighter at low speeds to give you extra distance. And itâ s completely self-powered â no batteries, no charging, just smart braking when you need it. Whether you’re bombing casts at first light or sneaking in a few after work, the E.D.C. gives you reliable performance and smooth control, all day, every day. 100 size; Cast aluminum frame 12+1 bearings; 25in per crank Lin pickup; Digitally Assisted Brake (D.A.B) System; 100 mm crank arm; Matte black finish; Custom neoprene reel case;
