Skeater Realist Pro Power Cat 8K Reel
Product Information
Catfish fishing puts sustained pressure on a reel, and the Skeater Realist Pro Power Cat 8K uses a nylon-reinforced graphite rotor and body to eliminate flex under heavy loads.
It is developed for braided main line, while S-Curve oscillation cross-winds the line for controlled lay.
An oversized power drag provides 16 kg or 35.2 lb of stopping force when a fish pulls hard. Reinforced heavy-duty gearing supplies torque and durability under constant pressure, and stainless steel ball bearings support an efficient retrieve.
The aluminium spool holds 250 m of 0.50 mm line, with a 4.6:1 gear ratio and 104 cm retrieve. A continuous anti-reverse system supports firm hook sets, and the reel weighs 796 g.
