Review: Another Solid KastKing Pickup — Looking Forward to Pairing with Zephyr Rod - This is another reel I picked up to match with a KastKing Zephyr rod I have coming in, and based on my experience so far with KastKing gear, my expectations are pretty high. I’ve already added a few of their rods and reels to my setup, and everything has been solid, reliable, and enjoyable to use, so I figured this would be a good addition to keep things consistent. Right out of the box, this reel feels lightweight but well built. The design is clean, and it has a smooth feel when handling it. The carbon fiber drag system and overall build give the impression that it should perform well once it’s out on the water, especially for lighter setups like bass, trout, or even ice fishing. I haven’t paired it with the rod yet (should be here soon), but based on everything I’ve used from KastKing so far, I’m expecting this to be another strong performer. Pros Lightweight and comfortable design Smooth feel right out of the box Carbon fiber drag system Great for lightweight setups Consistent quality with other KastKing gear Cons Not yet tested on the water Performance will depend on full setup pairing Overall, this looks like another great addition to my growing KastKing setup. If it performs like the rest of their gear I’ve used, it should be a solid reel for both casual and regular fishing. Review: Great reel! Does not disappoint! - 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... ## Features - ALL NEW DESIGN – KastKing Zephyr 500 Spinning Reels are a high-level design light weight fishing reel for trout/panfish/ice and other finesse fishing applications in freshwater.
