Quick take
A lightweight spincast reel with aluminum frame and simple dial drag for entry-level and young anglers.
The President is a size 6U spincast reel with an aluminum frame, aluminum spool and a 3.4:1 gear ratio. A spool-mounted dial drag tops out at 6 pounds, and five ball bearings keep the retrieve smooth. The handle swaps between right and left hands, and the push-button design keeps casting simple for beginners and kids. It suits light to medium monofilament work for panfish, trout and small bass.
