The New KastKing Zephyr Bait Finesse System BFS Baitcasting fishing reel is the angler’s choice for making accurate, short range casts using light line and extremely light baits. It all starts with the super shallow, CNC aluminum spool that is supported by an aluminum shaft and high-speed double shielded ball bearings. This spool is designed for light weight lines from 4-8 lbs and extremely light baits down to 1.5 grams. The palm perfect frame and side covers are made of 100% carbon material keeping weight to an absolute minimum. The entire reel weights only 5.64 ounces/160 grams yet is rigid and strong for superior performance and control. The high-speed gear ratio of 7.2:1 picks up 29.8” of line with each turn of the handle. Smoothness is assured because of the machined aluminum main gear and machined brass pinion gear. Even the worm drive shaft is machined of nickel-plated brass for a long life and smooth performance. A smooth, consistent drag is critically important for the Bait Finesse System because of the light BFS fishing lines being used. The Zephyr features a 4-disc carbon fiber drag that has no hesitation on startup, protecting those light lines. The braking system is designed to control the high speed associated with this system and utilizes 8 magnetic buttons that have 6 different adjustment levels to control over runs when using a variety of small, finesse baits in a wide variety of fishing conditions. A key to designing a true Bait Finesse System casting reel is the spool. You must have an exceptionally light weight, shallow spool that will hold a limited amount of light diameter line and deliver high line speeds with little efforts. Short, accurate casts are achieved with minimal effort with our CNC machined BFS aluminum spool that weighs only 9 grams and can accurately deliver baits down to 1.5 grams. Line capacity of the Zephyr casting reel is - Mono (Lbs/Yds): 4lbs/75 yds, 6lbs/65yds, 8lbs/50yds.
