Review: Fishing reel - Very good reel, delivered on time and very happy with the item

## Features

- Reliable and smooth - The multi-disk drag system with 8kg / 17lb drag power in the front of the reel ensures a smooth line take while fighting the fish. The 2+1 quality stainless steel ball bearings make the reel rotate buttery smooth. Thanks to the parallel line lay oscillation system, the line is always neatly spooled on to the spool.
- High-performance robust design - strong reinforced ABS graphite light weight body construction, double black anodized aluminium spool with line clip, diecast foldable graphite handle with T-shaped soft touch handle knob. Strong aluminium bail wire and special Halo Rotor design for superior strength.
- Free spool system - The Avocet Black Edition spinning reel comes with Mitchell's proven free runner system (also known as free spool, live liner, bait running systems). This is a free-spool feature that can simply be engaged by flipping the small lever on back of the reel. It allows the line to run of the spool in a controlled and low-resistant way without opening the bail.
- Multi-purpose use - These carp reels have been designed with fishing for carp in mind, but are real allround super stars. Thanks to the free spool function these fishing reels are also great for deadbait fishing for pike and zander. And on the river they are very well suitable for species like barbel and chub.
- Comes in 5500 / 6500 sizes with 5.1:1 gear ratio and 0.78 and 0.87cm line retrieve by handle turn. The reels come pre spooled with quality carp fishing monofilament in a dark low viz color, ideal for the beginning or recreational carp, coarse and feeder angler.

A: Hello.  My reels were supplied with 10lb breaking strain line (0.30mm thickness).

**Q: Which reel is this for, there are 2 different pictures?**
A: Same model reel but 2 different sizes. On one of the pictures the handle is masking the bait runner lever.

**Q: Are spare spools available ?**
A: Yes there are spare reels for the avocet reel but they sometimes come with a spare reel but the spare is not loaded

**Q: How does the handle fold on mitchell avocet black edition carp and catfish reel**
A: Unscrew the pin on the other side, the more you unscrew it the further the handle will fold down towards the bail arm but beware the pin stays loose. Don't forget to tighten it up again when you go fishing next. Good luck with your fishing

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect
*by G***E on 1 February 2026*

Great real, good price, probably buy another one

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fishing reel
*by C***N on 11 January 2026*

Very good reel, delivered on time and very happy with the item

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good real for value
*by J***E on 30 May 2025*

This real is a beast for its value, will pull most fish in from fresh water, smooth, nice drag, good quality though it could be improved in some areas but for the price? You can't complain, it's super easy to use. One thing I do recommend; the line that comes with it, switch it out instantly. It's trash and you will spend more time cutting it up. Make sure your line is nice and snug, this reel loves to toss the line off the reel. Overall great entry to mid tier reel
