🔧 Key Features & Performance Highlights
-
High-Speed Gear Ratio (7.2:1): The quick retrieve makes this reel excellent for fast lure retrieves, covering water quickly, or working reaction baits where speed matters.
-
7+1 Durable Bearings: Double-shielded stainless steel bearings ensure a smooth retrieve and long-bearing life, even in tougher conditions.
-
6 kg Max Drag with Carbon Drag System: Offers sufficient stopping power for most inshore and freshwater species. The carbon drag system provides smooth and consistent resistance — helpful when fighting spirited fish.
-
Lightweight, Durable Frame & Handle: The reel uses a reinforced frame with a CNC aluminum handle arm to keep weight down while retaining strength — helping reduce angler fatigue during extended sessions.
-
Patented LFTV Line Guide & Long-cast Spool: The low-friction line guide and shallow spool work to reduce casting friction, resulting in longer, more accurate casts and fewer backlashes — useful for tossing lures precisely at structure or cover.
-
Versatility & Value: For its price point, Sharky III delivers features often seen on more expensive reels — making it a great option for both beginners and budget-conscious anglers wanting strong performance without overspending.
