KastKing Royale Legend Spinning Fishing Reels, Available in 5.2:1 and 6.2:1

Smooth action and a good drag at a great price. Light weight but strong enough to handle bigger bass.

This is my second Kastking Royal Legend fishing reel. It’s a great reel, very smooth reeling, lite weight and the drag works flawlessly and it’s a nice looking reel. So far it’s been a very durable reel.

Smooth action - great replacement for an older reel.

I almost didnt get with this reel. But it was on sale and matched my new Ugly carbon stick. And everyone knows, fish dont bite if your rig has miss matched colors :) Out of the box, there is a little resistance when it spins. My 5 or 6 year old Pflueger, which has seen a ton of use and more then a few drops into muddy water, spins more freely then this reel does. I am hoping that a little use will loosen it up a bit. Will be a few day before I get out but wanted to do a fresh outta the box review. Unless this thing fails in a big way this fishing season, I doubt I will have anything negative to report. If it does fail, I'll update. It feels pretty durable and tight. Weight is good. I am pairing it with my new Ugly carbon stick. So it matches visually very nicely. Another reason I decided to give this reel a try is the gear ratio. I like a quick retrieve. So the 6.2:1 is a minimum for me. And you dont really find that to often in a budget reel. Irritating that a day after I purchase this it drops $5 in price. Paid $43 for it and its $38 a day later... So this thing had better perform. Update: Got out and put a few hours onto this reel. The reel performed flawlessly. Not a single issue. It felt good in the hand and the retrieval was very nice. The only cons I can say about this reel after its first time use is, as mentioned, it doesnt spin as freely as a more expensive reel. It still casts great. The second con is the bail is a little small. On every other reel I have ever used, the bail sticks out the same distance. This one the bail is tighter to the spool. Neither one of this is a big issue. First impression is, this reel is well worth the money.

Good quality, durability, and smoothness so far. Great reel for the money.

Great little real, decent looking design and performs well

Kastking does it again! Love these reels!

Good product

es muy buen carrete aunque creo que les hizo falta mejorar o detallar los acabados comparándolo con el sharky iii de la misma marca , pero sigue siendo muy buen carrete de pesca

Very well built .bail snaps over with percussion , looking forward to ripping some lips with it ! If had to be critical drag should be a little louder & reel a little lighter. All & all I’d buy another.

Mon gars adore son nouveau moulinet

Spool stopped moving up and down so line ends up gathering on top in one place. Subsequently, when casting, birds nests results on line. Only used lightly around 10 times. Do not buy this brand.
