The KastKing Sharky II is one of the better all around spinning reels for both the freshwater and saltwater angler. This is an upgraded model which is lighter and stronger than it’s original version boasting more carbon fiber drag washers, more ball bearings with less weight and increased line capacity. And this reel will not break the budget with the reasonable price of about $55 for the largest model.

Some notable features of this reel include:

• 10 + 1 shielded stainless steel bearings
• Instant stop anti-reverse
• Triple disc carbon fiber drag system
• Up to 41.5 LBs of smooth carbon fiber drag on the 6000 model
• Upgraded 30% stronger precision mesh brass gears
• Stainless steel shaft
• Lighter yet stronger large capacity machined aluminum spool
