Quick take
A saltwater spinning reel with sealed seven ball bearings and forty-one pound drag, sized for inshore and nearshore game fish.
The Cadence Stout is a size 1000 spinning reel with an aluminum, carbon and stainless steel build and a saltwater-minded coating. It has seven ball bearings, an anti-reverse switch, an ambidextrous handle and a braid-ready spool. Its carbon fiber drag tops out at 41 pounds, and the whole reel weighs about 0.31 kilograms, which suits anglers working inshore waters or stepping up from freshwater gear.
