  • ... Rover 60R Reel Review The reel arrived in a nice box and a nice cloth bag for storage
Color: Red Size: 60 Right Hand
KastKing Rover 60R Reel Review The reel arrived in a nice box and a nice cloth bag for storage. Inside the box was a schematic and parts list. This is very good as parts wear out and often need replacement. The schematic was small but readable. The reel was larger and heavier than I expected but very sturdy. Size wise it is larger than an Abu Garcia Ambassador 6500 but not as large or heavy as a 7000. The line spool is solid and a nice gold color. It is wider and of larger diameter than the Abu 6500. I was thinking it would hold more line but I was wrong. The spool release button is larger and over hangs more on the KastKing. Attempting to fill the spool all the way up to its max results in the line hitting the spool release button. Both reels hold about 240 to 250 yards of 15lb Berkley Big Game Monofilament Line. I noticed that the level wind assembly was all metal and appeared durable. This compares to both the Abu 6500 C4 approx. $135 and The Abu 7000 approx. $149. Both run smoothly and track well although the Abu Garcia Reels lay the line a little more evenly across the spool. Comparing the level wind to a Abu Garcia 6500-S approx. $60 the Abu also lays down the line smoother but it has a nylon drive tooth that will not wear as well as the $52 KastKing 60. Then I decided to get down to business and get inside the reels. The good news is most of the drive gears and bearings are metal and strong on the KastKing Rover 60 and the Abu 6500 C4. I noticed the spindle size on the C4 to a little thicker but it appeared only a mm or so. I did not take the time to micrometer them. Comparing it to the Abu 6500-S there was more metal and the construction was much better. Comparing the KastKing Rover 60 to the Abu 7000 is like comparing a Ford F150 to an F350 Super Duty. There is no real comparison. It will not stand up to a 150lb bull shark on the other end like the 7000 could (at max). However I would have no reservations taking on a 25lb redfish with this reel. A spin test of just the spool on the spindle outside the reel body revealed that all three reels: KastKing Rover 60, Abu Garcia 6500 C4 and the Abu 6500-S could be made to spin 40 to 60 sec and appeared equivalent in speed. I ran this test to see how pimp able they were to modifications like installing ceramic bearings, removing the level wind assembly, and adding a magnetic brake cast control. The three reels mentioned above are all equivalent here. (The Abu 7000 spins longer because the spool is significantly heavier) Still inside the reels all of the Abu Garcia Reels come with six set able centrifugal brakes as well as one or two spool tensions knobs. The KastKing has only two and they are on whether you like it or not. The Abu 6500 reels come with 4 of the brakes set to the on position at the factory. I changed this to two for my cast test later in the review. Getting back to cast control the KastKing has two spool tension knobs like the Abu 7000. This is an advantage as the star drag gets in the way of your fingers on the Abu Garcia with only one on the right side. The clicker assemblies on all three reels were similar with neither really out shining the other. All were adequate to leave the spool in free spool and let the sound alert you on a quiet night bait fishing. None was loud enough to do this on the beach with the waves coming in. I put the reels back together and filled them with 15lb Big Game Monofilament Line. I mounted them on a Diawa Acculite 9ft Salmon/Steelhead Medium Action Rod. Attaching a fish scale to a loop tied in the line I tightened the drag all the way down and did three pull tests of one foot. The Abu 6500 claim 15lbs of drag but he C4 only delivered 14.6. The 6500-S claimed 15 but only delivered 11.3. The KastKing Rover Claimed 13.5 and delivered 13.8. The Abu 7000 claims 20 but delivered 27.7. The Abu 6500 reels and the KastKing were then set to 5lbs and pulled through a 20ft walk away. The KastKing and the Abu 6500 C4 had less than 0.5lb variance during the walk. The Abu 6500-S failed this test on the third walk.(The line broke) All three were pull tested three times over 20ft. Now we get down to the casting part: Three cast were made with the Abu 6500 C4, the Abu 6500-S and the KastKing Rover 60 using a 1oz pyramid sinker with a one foot drop down from the rod tip. This was repeated with a 7ft drop down and a Brighton Surf Cast and finally with a full blown Tournament Type of Pendulum Cast. All three reels were within the margin of individual variance for a single reel. The one foot drop casts went 70 to 75 yards. The Brighton Casts went 85 to 95 yards The Pendulum Casts went 95 to 125 yards. You will note that as I went to the more difficult surf and tournament casts the variance widened. This is due to my own operator error as I am not a tournament caster and the angle of release is not as consistent between each individual cast with these tournament techniques. The Abu 6500 C4 was quieter on the cast and the KastKing Rover made more spool noise but both beat the Abu 6500-S here. My final conclusion is that the KastKing Rover 60 at $52 compares very favorable to the Abu 6500 C4 at $135 and is a real bargain. Don’t waist your money on the Abu 6500-S at $60 it’s a turkey. I plan on using his reel of spotted sea trout, redfish, flounder, and other near shore species. I am happy with it. ... show more

  • Great Baitcaster, takes some practice and adjustment.
Color: Red Size: 50 Right Hand
So I'm not a crazy experienced Angler. I have done a good deal of fishing though and I've used plenty of spinning reels and bait casters. I've used Penn and Abu Garcia reels. As well as some of the lower cost reels out there. So this one, like most Baitcaster reels, takes some dialing in to work well. My first cast I had a total birds nest of a reel. I had adjusted the knows on both sides so it dropped in a controlled manner with the weight I was casting on it, but that wasn't enough. So I tightened the left all the way and the right most of the way. Like this is wouldn't drop on its own but it casted great. The reel is super super smooth. Clicker is loud (as it should be). I love the mechanism for releasing the spool. Very well designed, one hand operation is a snap. First time out I only managed to catch one fish, but reeling it in was easy and one of the smoothest catches I've ever had. I've got it mounted on a 7ft Ugly Stik. On the design front, the reel feels and looks good. It's easy to scratch up, but all metal and feels very solid. I have the 50R so one of the smaller ones but it easily holds plenty of line for fishing the intercoastal in Florida and can handle fish in the 30lb and under range very well. The handles feel good in the fingers and are quite grippy, which is nice if you've been handling a fish and have slimy hands. Not everyone is like me, but I'm OCD. After every use lightly spray it off with the mist setting on a hose to help the salt water run off. Don't use a jet setting or you'll just push the salt into the reel. In summary, the reel is fantastic. I've only used it once so far, so I can't speak to longevity, but inspecting the design and watching videos I'm pretty sure it will last years and years. I'm already thinking about buying a 70R and another rod and getting my current rod set up for my wife. If you want a phenomenal cheap combo, pick one of these up with a $40 or so Ugly stick and some Kastking braided line and you'll be set for around $100. Possibly less. ... show more

  • Great value !
Color: Red Size: 50 Right Hand
I bought the Rover 50R and so far it is a sweet little reel . I doubt you will find a better quality reel for $ 53.99. It is very light weight and very comfortable to use. The spool brake knob is a great feature . It helps beginners from getting the old " birds nest " when casting. I used a Penn Long Beach reel when surfcasting . For many years it was my favorite reel but somehow I lost 2 of them when I moved a few years ago and Penn does not make them any more. I found a couple on Ebay but they were way way overpriced. Enter the Kastking . It is almost as good as the Penn. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because of that stupid level wind feature. Penn does the same thing now. I don't get it . It takes away from casting distance. So when you need to cast over the breakers on the beach , you have a problem. If you can't reel your line in and keep it even on the spool , maybe you should try golf . They should make 2 models of the Rover 50 . One with the level wind and one without it. That is my only complaint so far. Outside of that it is a very well built reel that should give many years of service providing you take care of your stuff. Always always rinse it off after using it and let it dry thoroughly . Keep it lubed and you should be good to go. I am beginning to think that this may be a better boat reel than casting reel. We will see. I am going to keep at it. ... show more
