Technical FAQ
What is it for? Finesse casting — light jigs, small swimbaits, ned rigs — where a heavy spool kills the cast. The 8 g spool is the whole point: it starts rotating with baits a standard spool won't move.
What does the drag alarm do? It clicks audibly while drag pays out, so you hear the run — the same feedback live-bait and trolling anglers rely on, in a casting reel.
