THE Nexave spin reels represent value for money for an entry level series. According to the manufacturers, they perfect for newcomers and kids who need the right start in fishing.
There are five models in this new FE series, from 1000 through to C5000 sizes, with the 3000 HGFE and the 5000 HGFE being of compact body design.
The cold forged aluminium spool with AR-C lip promotes longer casting without wind knots, and smooth transmission through the stripper guide, which is important when using fine diameter braided lines. Varispeed II assists in this regard, as it ensures that line lay on the spool is neat and even.
An XT-7 body keeps weight down, while three shielded stainless steel ball bearings and one roller bearing makes for effortless winding of the single piece aluminium handle, whether retrieving or hooked up.
Gear ratios range from 5.0:1 through to 6.2:1 depending on the model, and drag power is from three kilos on the 1000 size, up to 8.5 kilos in the 3000, 4000, and 5000.
