W hen he told us that “The only thing drag's ever done for me is get in the way or not do its duty", we decided to build a reel with no braking system, instead utilizing a spool locking physical design. The Deadbolt baitcaster weighs only 6.7oz and uses 10 double-shielded , stainless-steel bearings including two, free-spin super speed spool bearings that provide you with amazing ultra-smooth performance and extra-long casts plus an instant stop anti-reverse bearing for a total of 10+1 ball bearings . It utilizes an exceptionally solid aluminum frame along with carbon side covers for zero flex. And the high-performance gears made from solid brass and a hard anodized aluminum split main shaft deliver that solid feel. Plus, the aluminum handle is 25% thicker for even more strength and hook setting power. In an attempt to limit how much their drags slip on hooksets or while fighting a fish, many anglers wrench their star drags all the way down. Although this prevents some slipping, it doesn’t eliminate the problem. Deadbolt reel is KastKing’s revolutionary solution to this power fishing challenge. Speed Demon Elite Deadbolt- Specifications Innovative Features “Demon Eye” A revolutionary “Demon Eye” micro-control exterior centrifugal brake system for fingertip brake adjustments Adjustable Centrifugal Braking System After initially setting the internal brake pins, users can then fine tune their brakes with the external Demon Eye control, giving anglers a wide range of 40 adjustments for the bait and conditions they are fishing. KastKing Fishing Rods for You Spartacus II Crixus Perigee II Compass Progressive BlackHawk II Review: Small but mighty - KastKing really stepped it up with this series of reels and I am beyond impressed. Firstly, the reel weight, the listing says 6.7 ounces but it truly feels lighter which will be beneficial for long fishing days. The brake adjustments and selection are really cool, the side cover stays attached when you open the door and allows 6 adjusments internally and 9 micro adjustments externally. Below the handle gear is a cool selector so you can move the arrow to what line type and lb test you have on your reel which is pretty handy when you have a half dozen poles or more and struggle to remember which is which. The reel is quiet, smooth, has slightly longer handles than typical for more torque - just a lot if small things that add up to a great value and a justifiable price point. I’ll be putting this reel through it’s paces this spring and will update the review if needed, but I highly doubt my opinion will change! Review: Amazing reel - I'm loving the casting and smoothness of the reel awesome for frog and punching ## Features - PERFECT REEL FOR POWER FISHING - Speed Demon Deadbolt baitcasting reels were designed to eliminate frustrations anglers were having with their drag slipping when fishing heavy cover. How? Simple. We eliminated it. As a result, the reel allows for powerful, slip-free hook sets and offers anglers the retrieving power that they need to get more fish to the boat through the heaviest of cover. - INSIGHT FROM THE PROS - This casting reel was designed in partnership with Major League Fishing Pro Angler and KastKing Pro Cliff Crochet. When he told us that “The only thing drag's ever done for me is get in the way or not do its duty", we decided to build a reel with no braking system, instead utilizing a spool locking physical design. There is no drag. This reel is locked down so it will not slip, even under the harshest conditions. - STRENGTH WITHOUT THE WEIGHT – Because the Deadbolt baitcast reel is built for power fishing and the most aggressive anglers, we had to build it tough! The KastKing Speed Demon Elite Deadbolt utilizes an exceptionally solid aluminum frame along with carbon side covers for zero flex. This reel maintains strength while eliminating weight, resulting in a reel that weighs merely 6.7 ounces but will stand up to violent hook sets and large fish. - SMOOTH AND RELIABLE – The DeadBolt baitcaster uses 10 double-shielded, stainless-steel bearings including two, free-spin super speed spool bearings that provide you with amazing ultra-smooth performance and extra-long casts plus an instant stop anti-reverse bearing for a total of 10+1 ball bearings. Spool breaking is managed with a centrifugal braking system and a fine-tuning Demon Eye for precise management of overruns and backlashes while still delivering long, accurate casts. - PREMIUM FEATURES THROUGHOUT – We’ve over engineered every component in the reel for tank like dependability. High performance gears made from solid brass and a hard anodized aluminum split main shaft deliver that solid feel. Stainless steel pawl and aluminum worm drive provide smooth performance and we even made the aluminum handle 25% thicker for even more strength and hook setting power. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09P4XX7V3 | | Bearing Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Bearing Number | 11 | | Best Sellers Rank | #75,789 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #221 in Fishing Reels | | Brand | KastKing | | Brand Name | KastKing | | Color | Deadbolt- No Drag- 7.4:1- Left | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 24 Reviews | | Fishing Line Type | Braided, Monofilament, Fluorocarbon | | Fishing Technique | Baitcasting | | Gearbox Ratio | 7.4 | | Hand Orientation | Left Handed | | Handle Material | Aluminum | | Included Components | Deadbolt Baitcasting Reel | | Item Weight | 0.42 Pounds | | Line Capacity | Mono Line Capacity: 10/140, 12/110, 15/90; Braid Line Capacity: 20/270, 30/140, 40/115 | | Manufacturer | KastKing | | Manufacturer Part Number | KRLCSTSDE-DB74LGS-8 | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model Name | Speed Demon Elite Deadbolt | | Model Number | KRLCSTSDE-DB74LGS-8 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Anti-Slip | | Size | 7.4:1 Gear Ratio - Left Handed | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KastKing - **Color:** Deadbolt- No Drag- 7.4:1- Left - **Fishing Technique:** Baitcasting - **Gearbox Ratio:** 7.4 - **Hand Orientation:** Left Handed - **Handle Material:** Aluminum - **Item Weight:** 0.42 Pounds - **Material:** Aluminum - **Model Name:** Speed Demon Elite Deadbolt - **Special Feature:** Anti-Slip ## Images ![Speed Demon Elite Baitcasting Fishing Reels,Saltwater & Freshwater | Max Drag: 18 lb, 10+1 BB, 6.9 oz, Lightweight Aluminum Frame, Magnetic Brake, World's Fastest 10.5:1 Gear Ratio - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618FY3NVh7L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small but mighty *by L***X on April 30, 2022* KastKing really stepped it up with this series of reels and I am beyond impressed.
