Fishermen love to test the limits of their skills and gear. Why else would someone pick up a whisper-thin fly rod with a knuckle-busting fly reel and try to catch a blue marlin with it? It's a wonder someone hasn't developed a "knife-in-your-teeth" tourney where you jump in and subdue a marlin without a rod and reel! The folks at ZeeBaas have followed this lead and produced a bulletproof spinning reel that's ready to take on any fish you fling a bait to. The company's lineup of four new reels - the ZX2-20, ZX2-22, ZX2-25 and ZX2-27 - hold from 25 to 40 pounds of drag and are totally submersible.
These reels are made from some of the strongest materials available, like aerospace-grade billet aluminum, 6AL-4V titanium and 304/316 marine-grade stainless steel. With eight models to select from, you have the options of going bailless (single- or dual-line rollers) or adding a bail to your reel. Different handle and knob options are also available.
