KastKing Zephyr Spinning Fishing Reels with 5.2:1 Gear Ratio | Max Drag: 22 lb, 7+1 BB, 9 oz, Glass Fiber Infused Nylon Body & Rotor, Zinc Alloy Main Gear, Reversible Handle

This is an amazing reel. I noticed the price and decided to give it a try. I went for the 3000 version.I loaded it with 15lb braid on a 6ft6in rod and took it out kayak fishing. After only a few casts I switched it for my go to rig, which is a Pflueger President on the same 6ft6in rod. The Pflueger casts a mile with 15lb braid, the KastKing was just so-so and just didn't cast as far as the Pflueger did using the same lure.I really wanted to like this reel so I decided to give it another go, but with 10lb braid to a 10lb flourocarbon leader on the same rod. What a huge difference- this thing casts soooooooo far, is super smooth, and is so quiet.It has become my main rig and has been fantastic. Even casting into the wind with a small rooster tail, this thing just flew, and with a slightly larger lure it went even further.The Pros:Wow, this reel looks really good and is super light.casts a mile, seems to love the 10lb braid.It is just so smooth.The cons:Although it didn't cast as far with the 15lb braid as my Pflueger did, it really wasn't that bad so I am going to say that I don't see any cons to this reel.The price: This was in a perfect price point and certainly didn't break the bank. I got it with a 20% off deal and you just can't beat that at all.Overall: This was such a good reel I decided to buy another one (the Spartacus II- you can read my review on that one as well) and I think I have become a KastKing fan so far. Now if the darn fish would just bite...

Very nice reel for the price. Love how light it is. Very smooth. I’d compare it to my high dollar quantum smoke.

I've been using the KastKing Zephyr Spinning Reel for a few days now and I have to say I'm impressed with its performance. The reel is lightweight yet sturdy, which makes it comfortable to hold and use for extended periods of time.The smoothness of the drag system is exceptional, allowing me to easily control the tension when reeling in fish. The spool is large enough to handle a decent amount of line, but still compact enough to not weigh the reel down. The bail system is also smooth and easy to operate.The reel is designed with a high-quality construction, featuring a corrosion-resistant graphite body and rotor, and stainless-steel bearings. This provides a high level of durability and ensures the reel will last a long time with proper care and maintenance.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the KastKing Zephyr Spinning Reel and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a reliable and well-made spinning reel. It's a great value for the price and performs well beyond its cost.

Great reel overall! Only negative I’ve found is with weightless baits (Senko/Flukes) it tends to get a lot of line twists almost like a birds nest on a bait caster. Other than that it’s very smooth and casts far!

So far the reel feels very smooth and this model 1000 comes with the reverse switch have to test it in the water. And you can see the reels it small for 1000 model . The quality looks and feels really good

Unbelievable quality for a super good price. Great material , super smooth action, very cool color, very I am so glad I bought it

My son wanted this reel, when it arrived I had to check it out right away. It looks so nice, feels smooth. Awesome looking reel. It has worked fine. One time the drag stopped making the clicking noise. I pulled the line and tightened it all the way and backed off and it worked again. Not sure what happened but it's currently working fine.

Great reels. I bought a 2000 series to try on a walleye jigging rod. I Liked them so much Now I own 6… Smooth reels. Nice drag. Light weight .Fit and feel is great too. Would recommend to anyone

Works great, very smooth, great casting!
