Overview

The KastKing KK-RL2 SP-WR-3 is a size 3000 spinning reel from KastKing's Royale Legend Glory line, built with a graphite body, a 6.2:1 gear ratio and rust resistant hardware, weighing 13.76 ounces.

A 6.2:1 gear ratio pulls line back quickly per handle turn, which favors reaction techniques like spinnerbaits or topwater over slow, deep cranking. The graphite body keeps the reel light for a size 3000, and the rust resistant treatment protects components from moisture during regular use, though that's a different claim than a fully sealed saltwater reel.

Who it's for
