Took the Nexave™ out for a weekend of surf casting in Brittany. After hours of salt spray and sand-blasted gear, it still cranked like new. Love the EVA handle and how easily it rinses clean. This thing is built to last." - Maria

  • Clean casting, perfect balance, and no backplay. It’s a joy to fish with

    "I use it mainly for trout and perch in alpine rivers. The casting distance is wild with 6 lb braid, and it’s super lightweight. The anti-reverse feels instant—no mushy hooksets. Shimano nailed this reel."

  • Feels like a premium reel — but way easier on the wallet

    "I’ve been fishing pike and zander across Belgian canals for years, and the Nexave™ is hands-down the best reel I’ve bought under €50. Casts like a dream, drag is smooth, and it’s handled some angry fish without breaking a sweat. Can’t recommend it enough."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What’s the difference between a spinning reel and a baitcasting reel?

Spinning reels are easier to use and great for beginners. Baitcasters offer more control and power for experienced anglers but have a steeper learning curve.

How do I choose the right gear ratio?

A lower gear ratio (e.g. 5.2:1) gives more power for reeling in big fish, while a higher ratio (e.g. 7.0:1) retrieves faster for quick-action techniques.

What does “drag” mean on a reel?

Drag is the amount of resistance a fish feels when it pulls on the line. A good drag system helps tire out the fish without breaking your line.

Can I use the same reel for both freshwater and saltwater fishing?

Some reels can handle both, but saltwater can cause corrosion. Always rinse your reel with fresh water after saltwater use, and choose models with sealed bearings and corrosion-resistant materials.

What is the line capacity, and why does it matter?

Line capacity refers to how much fishing line your reel can hold, based on line thickness. It matters when targeting species that make long runs or when trolling.

How do I match a reel to my fishing rod?

Choose a reel that balances well with your rod's size and power rating. For example, a 5000-size reel pairs best with a medium-heavy or heavy rod.

How long does shipping take and do you ship internationally?

We typically deliver within 7-12 working days in most EU countries. Yes, we do offer FREE international shipping.
