CARDIFF A
A powerful, reliable, and easy-to-handle multiplier reel that fits perfectly into light and medium-heavy spinning. The Cardiff A series is designed for anglers who want precise control, smooth operation, and a mechanism they can rely on with every cast.
The aluminum body gives the reel rigidity under load, while the duralumin spool helps maintain smooth running and good balance. Thanks to the 5.8:1 or 5.2:1 gear ratio, this model is very suitable for spinning with lures where smooth animation and confident hook setting are important.
It will work well for fishing with wobblers, spinners, and spoons, as well as for hunting pike, zander, and perch in places where precise lure control and a durable multiplier reel are important.
