## Description



## Features

- BUILT FOR SALTWATER: Specially engineered for offshore saltwater fishing. Kapstan Elite High Speed Spinning Reel is KastKing’s highest end 100% Waterproof fishing reel at IPX6 level, with up to 15 EverSeal rubber rings to keep water out of the main gear. The KastKing Intrusion Shield System includes labyrinth-style greased sealing grooves that reduce rotational resistance and provide an innovative water-tight seal.
- ULTRA-SMOOTH, FAST & RELIABLE: Kapstan Elite saltwater spinning reel is equipped with 6 double-shielded stainless steel ball bearings that provide a superbly smooth feel even in rough conditions. Plus 3 special-designed polymer roller bearing that is high-strength and never rust, and one 8-pin stainless steel one-way bearing to prevent the flywheel from reversing. Size 3000-4000 offer 6.2:1 faster retrieve, size 5000-6000 offers 5.7:1 and size 8000 provides 4.9:1 gear ratio.
- EXCEPTIONALLY STRONG & SMOOTH DRAG: This premium saltwater spinning reel is designed with a powerful braking force for hard fighting fish. Sizes 3000/4000 have an ultra-smooth triple-disc carbon fiber drag system and 30lbs max drag; 5000/6000 have a quad-disc carbon fiber drag system with 40lbs max drag; 8000 have a special double drag system, that consist of five front carbon fiber discs and one oversized spool carbon disc, to provide 55lbs max drag. Perfect for saltwater, big game fish.
- SUPER STRONG ALUMINUM BODY: Max-strength CNC aluminum frame construction. Sizes 3000/4000 have a carbon fiber rotor for strength with reduced weight. Sizes 5000/6000/8000 offer a CNC Aluminum Rotor for extra-strength in fishing. The large power handle and knob are machined from solid aluminum to provide incredible cranking power. This spinning reel has the strongest overall design for offshore sport-fishing, deep-sea game fishing, and blue water fishing. Great for monster fish in freshwater also
- AERO-SPACE QUALITY GEARS: Best-in-class HRB 90 high strength aerospace alloy pinion gear with manganese brass gear guarantees extreme durability and smooth operation. These heavy-duty gears are 20% more durable than Aluminum and 95% more durable than zinc alloys. And the high-capacity CNC aluminum spool has a braid-ready structure, so there’s no need to add mono backing when spooling braided line. Plus, the seamless one-piece bail will never get rusted or caught on fishing line.
- Attention – Manual Bail Design: To reduce line twist, we always recommend manually closing the bail arm after making a cast when using any spinning reel. However, on the size 3000 & 4000 Kapstan Elite Spinning reels, you can turn the handle to close the bail if you prefer. The size 5000/6000 & 8000 Kapstan Elite spinning reels are a different design. These reels require you to manually close the bail to begin the retrieve.
- Please Note - Turning the handle will not close the bail automatically. This is a performance feature on larger saltwater reels and not a defect in the design. Simply make your cast and manually close the bail to begin your retrieve.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this reel
*by A***K on June 26, 2025*

This was my first saltwater spinning reel, and I’m so glad I got it!I took it to the Faroe Islands in early May 2025, and it handled everything like a champ. I caught three 25-inch cod and a few 20-inch sea trout—all without any problems. I love KastKing—I even brought my KastKing insulated rain jacket (which has way better heat retention than most others I’ve tried).I also brought it to Hilton Head Island earlier this month, and it was just as impressive! I caught a baby hammerhead shark, baby shark, baby stingray, whiting, and even catfish—all right off the beach.And get this—I actually got a little famous because of that baby hammerhead shark! A bunch of people came by to check it out, and someone even took a video. 😄If you’re looking for a solid saltwater spinning reel but the big brands are a little out of your budget, skip the cheap no-name reels from China and go with this one instead.This is 100% better. Try it—you won’t regret it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Super Smooth reel! Highly Recommended!
*by R***G on May 26, 2025*

I'm thrilled with its performance. From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell this was a quality piece of equipment, and it has certainly lived up to that first impression out on the water.The first thing that struck me is just how incredibly smooth this reel is. Casting is an absolute dream, with the line flowing effortlessly and consistently. The retrieve is equally impressive – silky smooth with no hitches or grinding, making it a pleasure to use all day long. This smoothness undoubtedly contributes to longer, more accurate casts.The reel easy to use. Even if you're newer to baitcasters, the braking system is intuitive and easy to adjust, significantly reducing backlashes and allowing for quick adaptation to different lure weights and wind conditions. The ergonomic design feels comfortable in hand, and all the controls are conveniently placed and operate crisply.I've been thoroughly impressed with the build quality and the overall fishing experience this reel provides. It handles fish confidently and has quickly become one of my go-to reels.I would definitely recommend this reel to anyone looking for a high-performing, smooth, and user-friendly option. It's a fantastic value for the money, and I would certainly buy it again!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best reel under $100. No question
*by N***L on July 21, 2025*

I’ve been using this kapstan SE 5000 for about 3 months. Catfishing and surf fishing. It’s smooth. The drag is flawless. The capacity is perfect. I plan on buying another one. I paired it with the 10’ kastking Kong mh.
