KastKing Megatron Spinning Fishing Reels with 5.2:1 Gear Ratio

The KastKing Megatron reel is one of my new favorite. Everything works like a standard spinning reel. The feel is great, works nice and smooth. The handle is made out of polished aluminum, so it feels real stout. Works as well as big named competitors. It has no problems fishing above its weight class, and functions smooth under heavier fish. Never tried KastKing before, but it genuinely impressed me. Some say its "good for the price". Price aside, its just genuinely good. It outperforms more expensive competitor reels that I own. Definitely going to shop more KastKing in the futur.

Used 2 of these for crab snaring. 6000 size. While a bit smaller than other brand 6000 size reels, these held their own just fine. If anything I appreciate the smaller size and lighter weight reel. Smooth reeling, easy to use, holds a lot of line to size, casts without issue, all in a smaller size than typical. Even with 2-3 crabs on one snare, they don’t hold me back reeling them in from 60-80 yards of surf and beach. Only thing I have to wait for is their longevity, surf casting has killed everything I have used in the past. Only time and rust will tell if these were a worthy purchase. I do my best to maintain my equipment, but most reels last 3-4 seasons max before the bearings rust through and they die! I’m hoping these two 6000s last! So far I’m impressed.

Its smooth, reel is nicely made, like the fact it has alot of bearings to The reel for smooth retreval, some reels have like 2 or 3 bearings, what i dont like is it has a reverse switch in the front, its not useful for me never have i ever used that switch ever, im so used to the ones that dont have it, if that switch breaks the reel is no good anymore. Other than that it is a good reel

Nice reel for the price

Great product! Exactly what I was looking for!

I bought 2 of these reels for use in saltwater. They are smooth and the drag system is very smooth as well. I put 20 lb braid on them and it seems to be a perfect combo on a 6.5-7’rod. Easily comparable to reels that cost twice as much.

These reels are tuff and hold up very well as I do a lot of wade fishing on the Texas coast. Unlike the brand that starts with a C.

I’ve been wanting to give KastKing reels a go for awhile. Out of the box this reel looks great. The drag, uptake and casting are smooth and the bail is nice. However, for a 6000 series reel, the handle is insufficiently small. I have this reel on a 12ft surf casting rod for large striper and blue fish fishing in New England. It handles the smaller fish adequately (4-7lb blue fish) but anything bigger is a struggle with this handle and grip. It’s so small that you really have to squeeze down on it (with just your thumb and index finger cause that’s all that fits) to manage the torque needed to muscle in a big blue or striper. I landed a 10lb blue on this three days ago and my reeling hand and forearm were really fatigued afterward. This is something I haven’t encountered with my Penn Spinfisher VI 6500 and I can only suppose that it has something to do with the length of the handle arm and the size of the handle grip. Further, this spool did not hold the amount of line advertised. I use PowerPro braid on all of my reels and this didn’t hold even close to a 300yd spool of 50lb PowerPro braid. I don’t know exactly how much is on there but there’s plenty left on the brand new store bought PowerPro spool. I also doubt the 46lb drag capability as even smaller striper and blues have peeled drag with it tightened down. Otherwise, it’s smooth and has caught some fish. If you’re looking to hook into bigger fish from shore or a pier, you might want to look into something a little beefier. Still not bad for a $50 reel. I may be able refit the handle with something heavier.

Estuve pescando en la playa y tiene muy bonito lance y mucha fuerza para pelear con los animales, además se ve hermoso y poderoso a la vista
