Ardent Apex Flipping Reel, 7.3:1 Gear Ratio, Right Handed , Black/Blue

Description

The Ardent Apex Flipping Reel was designed by Denny Brauer, renowned B.A.S.S. Elite money winner and King of Flipping. This reel was specially designed for one fishing application – flipping. The Apex Flipping Reel reel features a narrow arbor spool and fixed line guide that eliminate the need for a level wind mechanism and improve flipping accuracy as you make countless short, precise casts. Total reel weight is 5.9 ounces to help reduce arm and shoulder fatigue throughout a long day of fishing. For additional comfort and fatigue reduction, the reel is also equipped with EVA grip knobs on the swept back carbon fiber handle that also offers powerful leverage. To further reduce weight and improve durability, the Apex Flipping Reel was constructed with an ergonomic high strength aluminum frame and helical aircraft aluminum gear. This reel is equipped with a 10+1 high precision ball bearing system, a forged aluminum swept back star drag, and a strike saver system with an 11 pound drag for superior flipping performance. The Apex Flipping Reel is offered in 7.3:1 gear ratio for right handed anglers and in 6.5:1 gear ratio for left handed anglers to deliver strong close-range retrieves. The line capacity for both models is 40 pounds/75 yards..
