KASTKING: THE FUTURE OF AFFORDABLE FISHING GEAR

KastKing is revolutionizing the fishing industry with its affordable innovations that deliver exceptional quality at accessible prices.

As the popularity of fishing continues to grow, so does their commitment to supporting brick-and-mortar retailers, ensuring products are accessible and affordable to all. Their seamless supply chain delivers products on time with exceptional margins, creating a win-win partnership for all..

Here are four reels that will increase success and confidence on the water.

A $300 REEL WORTH TWICE THE PRICE!

KASTKING MG12 ELITE

The technologically advanced MG12 baitcaster is meticulously crafted with a lightweight magnesium body, offering exceptional performance at only 4.8 ounces. The deep spool design holds more line than other reels in its class. The Auto-adjustment Magnetic Breaking (AMB) system virtually eliminates backlashes and maximizes casting distance. Two top-of-the-line spin spool bearings ensure longer casts, and the ergonomic, low-profile “Palm Perfect” design offers a comfortable casting experience.

FEATURES:

4.8 oz ultra-lightweight magnesium frame AMB (Auto Adjustment Magnetic Braking System) Braking force adjusts automatically for longer casts and fewer backlashes 7.5:1 Gear Ratio 11+1 double-shielded stainless ball bearings Two super spin spool bearings for longer casts Low-Profile, Palm Perfect design – height: 36.5 mm Triple disc carbon fiber drag 90mm solid carbon fiber handle 

MSRP: $299.99

BFS: BASS FISHING’S NEXT BIG THING!

KASTKING KESTREL ELITE

The Bait Finesse System (BFS), a growing trend in the U.S., allows anglers to approach bass fishing differently in high-pressure waters while retaining strength, maximizing casting distance, and improving accuracy. Finesse fishing with a baitcaster allows the angler to thumb the spool, providing better casting control and stealth approach while casting lures as light as 1/16 oz on 4-pound test. The angler can efficiently make casts with small, finesse-style baits like Ned rigs, micro Jigs, and small swimbaits. Anglers now have the control and precision of using a baitcasting reel for techniques that in the past required the use of spinning reels.

At 4.4 total ounces, the Kestrel Elite is the world’s lightest baitcasting reel. Everything about the Kestrel says “lightweight,” from the magnesium frame, a 5.6-gram shallow spool design, as well as a carbon handle and side plates while maintaining plenty of strength on the inside, as the main gear and shaft are constructed of hard anodized aluminum and linked to a 100% brass pinion gear. The FAF (Flyout Arc Finesse) Braking System automatically adjusts to slow the spool and prevent backlashes, ensuring a smooth and controlled casting experience. There is also an external fingertip brake adjustment dial for fine-tuning spool speeds for smaller baits. 

FEATURES:

Full Magnesium Frame Carbon Side Covers Hard-Anodized 7075 Aluminum Main Gear and Shaft Carbon Disc Drag System Flyout Arc Finesse (FAF) Braking System Shallow Aluminum Spool  8.4:1 Gear Ratio

MSRP: $219.99

THE BEST DEAL IN A CASTING REEL!

KASTKING MEGAJAWS ELITE

This workhorse reel was designed for tournament pros and hardcore recreational anglers. Built around the rock-solid strength of the CNC-machined aluminum frame and carbon fiber side covers, the MegaJaws Elite features a “Perfect Palm” design providing a super low profile that fits any hand.

Few events are as frustrating as the dreaded backlash, aka the “professional overrun,” when out on the water. KastKing has virtually eliminated the time-consuming backlash with the “Auto-adjustment Magnetic Braking System” (AMB). The flippin’ switch is a tremendous advantage, offering instant engagement of the reel when fishing in close quarters.

FEATURES:

CNC-Machined Aluminum Frame Low Profile, Palm Perfect Design Auto-Adjustment Magnetic Braking System Flippin’ Switch for Close-Range Fishing DigiCut 7075 Aerospace Aluminum Main Gears Right or Left handed, 7.2:1 (Dark Galaxy) and 9.1:1 (Predator Red)

MSRP: $129.99

A SMOOTHER FISHING EXPERIENCE!

MEGAJAWS ELITE SPINNING REEL

The KastKing MegaJaws Elite 2500 spinning reel is a top choice for anglers utilizing light line and smaller lures, like casting tiny hair jigs or drop shotting for bass. The lightweight, shallow spool design limits line coil, enabling longer and smoother casts. The zinc alloy main drive gear provides strength at a reduced weight. The stainless-steel line roller enhances smooth retrieves and protects line from breaking under pressure, while the double-shielded stainless-steel bearings provide smooth performance and corrosion resistance season after season. 

FEATURES:

6.5oz  Shallow Finesse Spool Aluminum Pinion Drive Gear with Carbon Fiber Drag  10 + 1 Stainless Steel Ball Bearings CNC machined aluminum handle Double-shielded stainless-steel bearings  6.2:1 Gear Ratio

MSRP: $139.99
