Quick take
A beginner-friendly spincast reel with 4.0:1 gear ratio, 5+1 ball bearings and 160 yards of pre-spooled 10 lb mono for immediate use.
This is a push-button spincast reel with a 4.0:1 gear ratio and a 17.5 lb maximum drag. The handle is reversible, so it sets up for left- or right-hand retrieve, and the 5+1 stainless steel bearings and aluminum handle suit simple, low-fuss casting. It comes spooled with monofilament line, which makes it an easy starting point for beginners fishing for trout or bass.
