Our 2500 Series lightweight, large-arbor reels feature a unique offset 3:1 gear reduction drag system and numbered repeatable adjustment knob for consistent operation in all conditions. Self-lubricating drive gears and sealed graphite drag washers mean 2500 Series reels are maintenance free and unaffected by sand dunkings or blistering runs. These reels are made from hard-anodized aerospace-grade aluminum and are approximately 20% lighter than equivalent size 3000D reels.
