Good quality spinner reel
I absolutely love to fish and when I saw these spinner reels go on sale I jumped right on it! It’s that time of year when Crappie start going crazy so I decided to give my Crappie rods some new hardware. These reels look so good straight out of the box. Seriously! I wanted to set them on display in the house but my wife vetoed that decision! 😜They’re very smooth with 17.5 pounds of drag and 9+1 bearings. I like the KastKing brand and the quality that comes with the name. The size 500 is perfect for Crappie fishing.

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2024
Amazing real caught multiple 30 pound black, drum and red drum on this reel the only thing I can complain about is the drag no longer clicks when tightening or loosening, after catching so many Giants and the bail screws are rusting pretty fast

Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2024
Great spinning reel. I paired it with a KastKing Compass 6'6" Medium telescoping rod and it looks sweet. As with all telescoping rods, casting is decent at best, but I think this is one of the best telescoping rods I've ever casted. I use this combo for fishing from my e-bike (with a fishing crate on the back). It's a great combo for that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap
Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024
The reel felt smooth, reeled very well, and I was impressed at first. However it did not last two weeks before it broke. Any, and even small fish puts a lot of tension on the cheap plastic parts that are shown broken. If you were careful and using it just for pan fish it would probably be ok for a while. Maybe I just got one out of a bad batch? I would not purchase another one tho, as I also purchased a royale casting reel and I was disappointed in it from the start, felt terrible , wasn’t smooth at all, very noisy. A good greasing and I do use it for trolling but I would not use it casting all day.
