Best ice fishing reels Ive bought. I have 4 of them!!! They have a coating that reduces icing in extreme conditions and a 3 disc drag system which is excellent for light ice fishing lines. designed with an extended shank for use with thick gloves! Well done KastKing!!!

I have bought other reels the same size for way more money, but the quality of this reel is far better than any other I have .Kastkking is my brand !

Very professional product. I have nothing negative to say about this company. They pay attention to the details all the way down to the packaging giving you all the info you need to properly maintain your reel. As for the reel itself I love the feel of it and the rubber handle piece is awesome! Thanks for being a dependable manufacturer that delivers on its promises!

I bought this reel for my wife. i was pleasantly surprised by the quality especially at this price point. After opening, it is clear that it is a step above the summer reel that Kastking also sells. So far, the reel has an extremely smooth retrieve, seems very durable as well. Depending on how long this reel lasts, i may purchase more in the future.
James Sheffield
Bought this for crappie and bass fishing. This is a awesome reel. Love it!!!
Adam
This thing is so smooth and an absolute steal for the price..
Andrew Hibbeln
Great deal at this price point. I got the 4000 series its large but comparable to other 4000s I've seen in a wide spectrum of costs in weight and size. I didn't give it a 5 in durability because I just got it and used it this weekend. Judging by how it worked and felt I would say it is built to last. Not my first kastking reel won't be my last. Keep up the good work and quality products.

Works really well, super satisfied with this purchase

Probably the best bang for buck spinning reel I’ve ever purchased. My 2nd KastKing reel as I needed to replace an old KVD special edition spinning reel & liked my KastKing baitcaster I bought so much I thought I’d try this spinning reel as a backup...it has actually become one of my go to’s now!
MAF
Arrived quickly, sturdy in the hand and smooth. Very attractive reel. Lov’in the KK reels.
Teresa Olson
Looks really good its sturdy i use it for my finesse setup 8lbs fluorocarbon braid backing medium rod fast actionI really like the feel of it when I hook up to a nice fish
sammy
great reel, very smooth when reeling in, cast is great . its a nice addition to my collection, very happy with it
Benjamin Weigand
This reel is comparable in feel and craftsmanship to a $100+ reel. Can’t believe I was able to pick up a quality reel for this cheap. I checked KastKings out on a buddy’s recommendation, and so far no complaints. Bought the 2000 and threw a 10lb line on and it’s smooth like butter.
JACOB
smooth long casting reel
Laraine bronski
So far love the feel of this reel. For the price, a great deal. Have not been fishing much due to weather, but looking forward to catching the big one !
Dirk Hemza
Very impressed so far, just pulled it out of the box, mounted and lined it up!!! Very excited to put it in use...As good as this feels, I’m ordering the KastKing Speed Demon next (now in fact)!!!
Kc McFarlin
Great reel. One of the smoothest I've ever owned.
Michael J Bailey
First impression out of the box is the reel looks fantastic. Very smooth action, drag feels good. I love the rubber grip on the handle. Spooled it up with 12lb Suffix line. Cant wait to put it through its paces.
Bruce W. Griehm
Just right for my ultra light spinning rod...Using it mainly for pan fish with 6# braid...
TM
Looks good. Feels good. Plays good. No complaints at all thus far. Hope to feel the same for years to come!
Bungalobob
Well constructed, nothing flimsy about it. Smooth operating and sleek look. Trying to assemble and arsenal of poles and rods without spending a fortune, giving KastKing a shot at helping me. This reel, though only out once so far, had several hundred casts and pulled in four bass, performed flawlessly. Great reel for the price.
Padelis P.
Pulled up porgies, snappers, bluefish, stripers and sea bass with this bad boy, paired it with a med heavy cirrus rod from kast king! Loving it so far can't wait to hit the fall run
Jake Lewis
This is my 4th fishing reel from KastKing. For the price, you seriously can not beat them. They are the quality of reels 2-3 times their price range. I would highly recommend this reel.
Andrew
Great Reel, bought the matching Rod along with it. Bought one for myself and 2 other buddies. Can't wait to break it in.
kyle fillmore
Best budget spinning reel on the market. I have the 2000 size on an ultralight rod and it flings a lure a mile for a spinning reel. Spoiled it with 10lb extremes braid and couldn’t be happier. Couldn’t believe it for the price. Incredible value.
Dustin Millspaugh
KastKing never fails to deliver quality on a budget! I know several of there products and absolutely love every single one.
Tom16
Great reel. Very smooth, quiet. Landed some Big Bass with this reel.
Joshua Rodgers
Another great real by KK. This is the third real of six I have from KK and again they do not disappoint. Well made great durability. Smooth and strong. No problem bringing in the big boys.
Chilly
Got this for a medium 7ft rod for more finesse fishing or panfish and it works like a charm. Casting ability is great, retrieve is smooth and it’s lightweight. Good bang for your buck if you’re looking for a budget high end reel
colton barty
Just received it and spooled it up with 20lb braid. Excited to get out and use it this weekend. Great price!
M. Abrams
Used this over the weekend in the ocean. It was great and easy to use. The drag was smooth. Use 20lb line and had plenty on the spool.
Raiderguy21
Love it! Just as described, would definitely Italy do business with again. Excellent reel for the price, also bought with a last king pole.
Xavier Carrillo
Best reel for $35 hands down. Having said that, not as good as more expensive reels that I have. Nor would I take this into salt water.
Bankum
LUV it “KASTKING” ! Compare to Lews ! “KASTKING” why the same Concept
J-Rod
So far I've been thrilled with the value for the money. Casts a mile, looks great and super smooth.
AvgJoe
The grip should be standard on all reels! If it holds up long term it could be the best innovation in fishing reels in a long time.
FPaulsen
I got this for my wife and she really likes it . It does look nice on her White Ugly Stick Surf rod . The reel is pretty well made especially for the price and I don't think any other company produces one as good .
gregg
This is the best spinning reel I have used under $50. The movement is so smooth. I purchased the smaller size paired it with 4lb line and use it on a 7 foot ultralite pole. It is great for. crappies and other panfish. I am really considering trying out one of there baitcasting reels at some point.
dingo
Reel looks and feels great. Love the clicker sound, hefty and quality feel. This is my third one, last one crixus is also fantastic. All of them work great. These are my new go to reels for inshore anything.
Raffpap
I absolutely love my new reel. It feels so nice in my hand, the grip is rubberized so water wont make you slip. Great buy.
chris kim
Fantastic reel. I paired it up with the Criux rod and it’s easily one of my favorite set ups.
Scott Berry
I am pleased once again with KASTKING's product. The Reel is amazing checks all the boxes and lives up to the reviews. I appreciate that KASTKING prides in providing Bang for Your Buck value on all their products.
Sue
This is the best real I've owned for trout, salmon, steelhead fishing. Spool is slight larger than comparable reels for its size so it's very good for fast retrieval.
Dave C. Stone
Fast delivery. Didn’t realize it was a manual bail, but I’m learning to use a spinning rod with this one. So it is really smooth!
Rachel Mendoza
I like that it’s really smooth and easy to operate.it feels very well made heavy duty took it out this past weekend and slayed some trout very smooth casting and retrieving awesome reel for the price for sure buying more from #kastking they just might be my new favorite fishing company I love how they have a lot of videos about their products on YouTube just had so much fun with this reel I also bought the #crixus rod and the combination of the two killer can’t wait to buy more from this company
Alexander G.
Good reel overall, smooth, does the job, reasonably light, built okay, used it with spinning/crankbait. I used it only for a few times, but I think it will last long. What I don't like is the white color appearance, with minimal dirt and dust it looks weathered.
Tommy Caulder
Ggggreat!! My second KastKing reel and they never let me down..
Ike
Just opened the box first impression was a very nice looking reel. After tightening down the handle found the reel to be nice and smooth. For the budget mined this is a nice reel for the price.
cs
Great reel for the money.
Johnny Bettmann
I purchased two of these in two different sizes. The reels are way bigger than I have ever seen. Felt smooth for the 10 seconds I owned them and then sold to a buddy
CoquiPlayero
Excellent item for the price. I already owned a bait caster and rod combo but since I've always used reels I wanted to try it out.What can I say, it’s worth it and you can’t beat the price!
