Smoke™ PT reels
How do you make the lightest all-aluminum reel on the market? By stripping it down like a fine-tuned racecar, shaving fractions of an ounce, component by component. For the new Smoke PT, we did all that and more to deliver a reel that weighs a mere 6.2 ounces – without sacrificing strength and durability. Available in 100 and 150 sizes and five different gear ratios. All starting at only $199.95 MSRP. Check out the full specs here.
A: Skeletal handle with soft EVA knobs reduces weight without flexing
B: 1-piece, ultra-light, high-strength aluminum frame and aluminum side covers
C: Aluminum drive gear. Tough as brass but lighter
D: Quantum ACS2 adjustable centrifugal cast control
Smoke™ PT rods
The new Smoke PT reels absolutely called for a matching rod series to take the super lightweight performance up a notch. Our Smoke PT rods have been meticulously designed to do just that (yet are only $129.99 MSRP). Check out the full specs here.
