Made from a combination of
aluminium and XT7 graphite,
the Hybrid Aluminium Spool is
lighter and much stronger than
standard spools. This gives
better balance to the reel, is more
suited to extreme fishing situations and makes the reel work more efficiently. The metallic spool lip also improves casting.
