A reasonably priced reel that delivers all the performance you need for serious bass fishing, the Pflueger Echelon Casting Reel weighs in at only 7.5oz thanks to its lightweight, reinforced graphite frame and sideplates, and its machined ported and anodized aluminum spool. Five double-shielded stainless steel ball bearings also provide excellent corrosion-resistance and smooth functioning, while a magnetic cast control helps eliminate backlash with an easily adjustable external dial. Dual soft touch knobs provide winning comfort, and a beefy multi-disc main gear applied drag system delivers absolute lock down capabilities. A great all around reel at a great price, there's no bass fishing application the Pflueger Echelon Casting Reel can't handle.
