Description
PERFECT BAITCASTING REEL FOR FINESSE FISHING – The Kestrel Elite BFS (Bait Finesse System) baitcasting reel is the lightest fishing reel on the market weighing only 4.4 ounces! KastKing Kestrel Elite baitcasting reel allows anglers to effortlessly cast lightweight baits farther with greater accuracy while nearly eliminating backlashes. Plus, the minimal weight and comfortable, compact size make the Kestrel Elite a breeze to fish with all day long!
ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY – The FAF (Flyout Arc Finesse) Braking system was designed specifically for finesse fishing. Two half-ring magnetic brakes automatically adjust to slow down the spool when braking is needed to prevent backlashes. As the speed of the spool decreases, the magnetic field inside the spool diminishes and the magnets retract to maximize casting distance. There is also an external fingertip brake adjustment dial for fine tuning spool speeds for smaller baits.
INNOVATIVE SPOOL – The ultra-lightweight BFS shallow feather spool weighs only 5.6 grams! The smaller spool excels at handling the smaller diameter lines best suited for finesse fishing. The shallow spool requires less effort to turn and get up to speed, therefore enabling anglers to effectively cast lures down to 1/16 oz.
STRENGTH WITHOUT THE WEIGHT – The compact Palm Perfect design (36.5mm height) and magnesium frame reduces the total baitcasting reels weight to only 4.4 oz. Although the KastKing Kestrel Elite baitcasting reel is as light as a feather, it doesn’t skimp on power. The main gear and shaft are constructed of hard anodized aluminum and linked to a 100% brass pinion gear. A carbon handle and side plates also keep the weight low while maintaining strength.
ADVANCED LINE GUIDE – The patented LFTV (Low Friction Tapered Vortex) Line Guide decreases the angle at which the line enters the guide, limiting friction during casts. Straighter line and reduced friction results in fewer backlashes and greater distance on casts, both of which are qualities highly desirable among serious finesse anglers.
The Kestrel Elite Magnesium Frame BFS Casting Reel from KastKing is soon to be a favorite in the arsenals of finesse anglers around the world. The shallow aluminum spool allows for easy casting of extremely light lures and the compact Palm Perfect design makes this reel a perfect solution for those looking to downsize their gear in pursuit of finicky fish. Many skilled anglers have relied on spinning gear to target multiple species using finesse techniques like drop shots, Neko rigs, Neg Rigs and more. But these same anglers would love to use a casting reel for these techniques if it was easy and efficient to use with very lightweight baits. Now you can do both, fish finesse techniques and still use a baitcasting reel for all of its advantages. The reel’s full magnesium frame and carbon side covers create the lightest baitcaster available at a microscopic 4.4 oz! And it’s not just its weight that makes this reel special – it’s silky smooth with 11+1 double shielded ball bearings and has a fast retrieve speed with an 8.4:1 gear ratio. The Kestrel Elite leverages premium components throughout to ensure the reel performs when put to the test. The main gear and shaft are made of hard anodized, 7075 aluminum and linked to a 100% brass pinion gear while the carbon disc drag provides ultra-smooth stopping power. For those looking to expand their fishing horizons with finesse techniques that are highly effective on clear or highly pressured waters and highly pressured fish, the Kestrel Elite Magnesium Body BFS reel is a must add. Extremely lightweight with tremendous casting distance while still packing enough punch to fight big fish – this reel truly has all the finesse bases covered.
