This is the UK’s lowest-priced big pit reel and is designed purely to put loads of extra yards on your cast with big carp, pike, and specimen rigs.

When distance fishing is crucial, this reel delivers the goods thanks to the oversized, tapered spools which allow line to peel off the reel easily, and quickly.

It also has loads of cranking power to bring those long range rigs back to the bank with little effort too, with a higher gear ratio of 5.6:1.

In fishing mode, the FS7000 boasts an easy to use freespool facility which allows the fish to pick up your bait and run, without smashing you up.

It also features an instant anti-reverse – when you flick the switch underneath the matt body the anti-reverse is set immediately with no fall back on the handle or rotor, allowing perfect setting for bite detection.

A large handle, plus easy-to-use, quick front drag, and spare spool completes an impressive line-up for such a bargain priced reel.
