Product Information
Free spool control gives the Skeater Realist 5K FRS Reel a natural place in specialist predator and specimen fishing, including work for big perch, zander and pike.
Its independent rear free spool lever and micro-adjustable front drag give you precise control on running water or stillwaters.
The lightweight nylon-reinforced graphite body and rotor pair with a stainless-steel main shaft for strength and durability. A 5+1 stainless-steel bearing system, 5.1:1 gearing and S-curve oscillation produce a 96cm-per-turn retrieve, laying line evenly and reducing tangles.
With 0.35mm/300m line capacity and 13kg/28.6lb drag power, it weighs 440g. The CNC-machined solid aluminium handle carries a rubber T-bar grip for comfort and leverage, while the large spool takes bigger-diameter line for longer casts and bigger fish.
