Skeater Realist 5K Reel

If you are looking for a spinning reel that can handle medium to large fish, the Realist 5K is just the model for you. Designed for fishing for perch and zander, it is also suitable for pike and balances with the stalking rods perfectly.The Realist 5K features a robust S-curve oscillation retrieve system. This allows the line to crosswind on to your spool when you retrieve and prevents the line from bedding-in when you use the drag. As a result, the line will come off the spool free and easily when casting, allowing a longer and more accurate cast.The nylon-reinforced Realist 5K comes with stainless steel main shaft, 5+1 ball bearings and a one-way clutch system for improved overall performance and stability. A single aluminium handle and T-shaped rubber grip allow for easy retrieve and perfect control when playing fish.When you consider factors like best value money can buy, versus build quality, drag strength, line capacity and overall versatility, the Skeater Realist 5K has got you covered.Ideal for targeting medium to large freshwater predators such as perch, zander and pikePerfectly balanced to pair with stalking and medium-power spinning rodsLine capacity 0.30mm/350mGear ratio 5.1:1Retrieve 96cm per handle turnDrag power 11kg/24.2lbRobust S-curve oscillation system ensures smooth cross-winding for optimal line layPrevents line bedding under drag pressure for longer, more accurate castsNylon-reinforced body for strength, durability and lightweight handlingEquipped with 5+1 stainless steel ball bearings for smooth operation and enhanced reel lifeOne-way clutch system offers instant anti-reverse and improved hook-setting powerStainless steel main shaft for enhanced reel lifePrecision-machined aluminium handle with a comfortable T-shaped rubber gripExcellent balance of value, build quality, drag performance and line capacityBuilt for reliable performance across a wide range of freshwater fishing applications
