Excellent Reel For Finesse Fishing
The KastKing Zephyr 1000 SFS (Spin Finesse System) spinning reel is a tremendous option for those who prefer to downsize their bait presentations for finicky fish in highly pressured and/or clear waters. This reel has all the features finesse anglers are looking for in an innovative, yet affordable package.
Small But Mighty
The KastKing Zephyr 1000 features an oversized 7075-T6 aluminum alloy mainshaft that is exceptionally strong and incredibly lightweight. And the manganese brass pinion gear and a satin smooth triple-disc carbon fiber drag system with up to 10 lbs of drag power lets you fish the lightest fishing lines without the worry of breakoffs.
Super Smooth Performance
Enjoy the smooth operation of the Zephyr thanks to 7+1 double shielded ball bearings. In addition to being smooth, this new BFS reel gives you a 5.2:1 gear ratio for a good balance of torque and speed with a line retrieve rate of 23.8 IPT.
Strength Where You Need It
Braid ready CNC aluminum hard-anodized two tone spool prevents braid line from slipping under pressure, there's no need for monofilament backing, 6061-T6 Aluminum (as used in many automotive parts), handle with EVA paddle grip, brass pinion gear, alloy drive gear with stainless steel insert, stainless steel hardware.
Ultra Lightweight
Superior carbon fiber constructed body, body cover and rotor let Zephyr 1000 spinning reels weigh in at only 5.3 oz. Oversized 7075-T6 aluminum alloy main shafts are light yet extremely strong. 7075-T6 alloy is as hard as many steels, but in a lighter-weight aluminum. Its strength-to-weight ratio is why it is widely used for aircraft construction. A KastKing Zephyr spinning reel is lightweight and durable!

You guys need an Australian retailer.
This little reel has served me well for its first Australian Bass season.
I try to get out every Friday after work in the Kayak with a few sneeky sessions in between. I have lost count the amount of fish this thing has bought in and the amount of times it has castes since purchasing just over a year ago. It's my go to for Australia Bass, Estuary Perch, Bream and flathead. I'm about to give it a go for Ludrick.
The combo nation of price, looks and performance is very good. I would say 4.5 out of 5 so far. I have caught serval 12!13 fat rainbows with it. Casts very well. 👍
I was a little hesitant to buy this but I'm so glad I did. Pairs will with my Kestrel ultra light and was braid ready too so that was a plus. Handled a 15" rainbow trout with ease in current and I'm definitely enjoying casting on this thing. Would buy again!
Great finesse reel
KastKing sent our YouTube channel (Hawkmeyer Outdoors) a zephyr 1000 sfs to review... After fishing with that reel for a few weeks, I knew I wanted another one! I spent my own money on a second zephyr 1000 sfs and I'm still impressed with the quality feel, smooth casting, and oversized crank handle. I highly recommend this reel and use promo code: hawk to save some money
