  • Nice Reel
Style: 3000
I bought 2 of the Kastking baitfeeder 3000 just to try them. I paired them with my old Penn Allegiance 7’6” inshore rods. The pairing looks perfect and their colors compliment each other like a perfect match. I have had several baitrunner reels from the older Shimano BTR to the newer Baitrunner D and OC. I also owned several Okuma Avenger baitfeeder, Okuma Salina baitfeeder, Okuma Coronado baitfeeder and Okuma Trio baitfeeder as well Daiwa Sealine Black baitfeeder. There was also a Tsunami baitfeeder. So, that being said I am not new to baitrunners. I pretty much sold everything except my Shimano Baitrunners. I currently have a total of 20 Shimano baitrunners of different sizes. So, back to the Kastking Sharky III baitfeeder. Appearance wise this reel IMO has very attractive cosmetics. I like the shiny black and red colors much more than the Penn Fierce and Daiwa Fuego LT. The spool appears to be machined nicely. I don’t care much about the extra spool but others might find it useful. There’s a lot to like about this reel. The bail wire is thick, the drag clicker is loud as well as the baitrunner clicker. The baitrunner clicker is the loudest among all the baitrunners that I owned. The Shimano Baitrunner OC is the quietest of all. The handle knob is very nice unlike the Shimano 4000 and the OC which I replaced all with Gomexus power knobs. I don’t feel like replacing the Kastking knob at all as by itself it looks nice and is comfortable. I don’t like the way the baitrunner switch is designed. It is like the old Shimano baitrunners as well as most Okuma baitrunners. In my opinion the direction to engage the baitrunner should be like cocking a pistol. I need to get used to that and keep it in mind that I have to flip forward instead of backwards. I also don’t like the design and quality of the baitrunner adjustment knob. It feels like it’s going to breakdown sooner. The reel is light and has very smooth retrieval. I don’t like the handle attachment because it’s not a screw-in. The handle is reversible. The line lay tends to concentrate at the middle. This is the best it could do after subtracting/adding shims. I ended up going back to the 2 shims that it came with. This reel will be used for light to medium fishing targeting fish that are no bigger than 10 lbs so this should hold up and serve its purpose. I will update this review after I use these reels a few times and I will comment about the drag and flex etc. But for less than $50 each, if this lasts a year it’s all worth it. ... show more

  • Not bad for the money but be realistic about what you're buying
Style: 6000
Update 12/28/19: Something shifted in the back of my truck and this reel snapped off the rod it was on, right at the reel stem. Now, I am probably going to order it again but I might wait and see if they come out with a new version that fixes the flex issues. I still recommend it for the money but beware that it is weak at the stem. It is my fault the reel broke, but thats what you get when you buy a plastic reel. Update 5/4/19: So far so good. Reel performed well during the Spring striper run here in the northeast as a bait reel. I have not dunked the reel but it has been sprayed heavily on jetties and in the surf. With a light freshwater rinse afterward the reel has been just fine. For sixty bucks with the baitrunner feature you could do a lot worse IMO. I am considering ordering a second. I bought this reel because I wanted to try a liveliner/baitfeeder dual drag reel for throwing bait but did not want to take the plunge on a Shimano Baitrunner just yet. I bought these reel to do double duty as a catfish reel and inshore reel for stripers and bluefish. I have used it on four outings since getting it in the mail and it has performed as I would expect for a sixty dollar reel. I'll try to update my review somwhere down the line. Here are my observations for what it's worth. Size: I have the "6000" which is the largest size they offer. It is about the size of my Penn Slammer 5500. I would say it's about a 5000 size reel from most manufacturers. Gimmicky marketing, but ok. Why not just call it what it is? Fit and Finish: It's plastic. Yup made out of plastic but it's nice, it feels nice anyway. My copy had no flaws or defects from the factory. Heard horror stories about sharp edges around the anodized lip of the bail--- not so on mine. For a cheapo reel I'd say the finish is dang worth the money. Drag: I have caught about ten fish on it so far to around ten to twelve pounds. The reel performed very well. When fishing a pier with the rod just leaning up against the railing the secondary drag is a very nice thing to have. I can turn my back on the rod and know it's more than likely not going to get pulled over because the fish can run with the bait. The main drag felt great on the small sample I have to review from. There's a video online of a guy in UAE fighting Barracuda and Trevale with it no sweat... I think it's fine. Again I will update down the road. Line Capacity: I dunno sorry, was not paying attention. I spooled it off a 600ish yard spool of 30 lb Kast King Superpower Braid (wanted to get the full KK experience lol). I would imagine it's a tad overstated or on point. All manufacturers do that, including on my Slammer which was 3X+ the price. They give you a second spool for FREE. FREE. That is awesome. The second spool may just be intended for mono but you could rig it up with braid with a little tape or backing. That's a major plus for me to have the second spool because nobody likes having to leave early say if you get spooled by a ray/shark or experience line problems. The line lay on my copy was fair. It is not perfect but it is not lopsided either. Again, sixty dollars.... Saltwater Worthiness: This reel is supposed to be designed to withstand saltwater but I would not bet my sixty bucks on it, meaning I would not dunk it. Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you. It's not designed for that level of abuse. I fish off piers and jetties with it. Important Notes: Reel flex at the rod seat area. I knew about this going in and still bought it because I don't anticipate fighting gigantic fish with it (although I'm sure it would be fine). Believe the hype, it is a real issue (puns....). When I put the reel on a rod I can push down with force and make the reel move toward the rod. They need to fortify the stem a little better. That being said, I accidentally hook into rays sometimes while hunting other fish. If it breaks, I'll comment back. It doesn't really cause me much concern. It's a sixty dollar reel and to me the pros of the reel outweigh the cons. In Sum: Smooth reel out of the box. Fit and finish on mine was pretty great for the money. Drag systems work well. Reel flex is a legit issue and the stem needs fortification but that would probably drive up the cost. If it snaps off I'll be sure to update my review. Until then I'll be enjoying the reel. For my money, this reel allows me to try something normally only available on more expensive reels at a fraction of the cost. I think it's worth the money I paid for it. ... show more

  • Great reel
Style: 3000
This is the third reel I’ve purchased for shiner fishing that’s how much I like this reel. The clicker is loud enough to hear without that awful screeching sound. Great quality reel.

  • Bought these for catfishing.
Style: 5000
I've bought two of these reels one 5000 and the 3000 I believe they both work great. I tend to get a little sleepy out on a dark quiet cool river so the bait clicker feature is great for that reason. Would recommend to anyone. Kastking has made a customer out of me with just this reel.

  • Strong durable Reel with a great bait runner.
Style: 5000
Strong and durable, have no issues handling any size catfish. The bait runner or clicker is neat! Very good at fine tuning for the perfect clicking.
