  • Great Value!
Color: A:Left-Stryker Green-7.2:1
EDIT: Ok so I have been using the reel A LOT and randomly during a cast it squealed. Now it squeals every cast like the spool bearing is bad or something. It's weird because it still casts perfectly smooth.. I just took it apart and oiled everything, we will see it fixes the issue. I have been wanting to get a left handed retrieve bait caster for a while now just to try it out verses my right handed one. Didn't want to spend 100$+ on one and finally gave in to this one for 49$. Caught the bass in the picture today with it, not a monster bass but it wasn't tiny either. Great working reel! I'm actually surprised how nice it looks and material feels. The one I have is like a matte textured feel to it. The reel is very light weight and compact. Fits my hand perfectly. (Medium gloves for reference) I used it today for about 30minutes and it took me about 4 casts to get the brakes tuned in. I am by far not a pro caster but I know how set the brakes. It casts and reels very smoothly. Actually reels pretty fast too, I had to make myself slow down my reeling. When I first held the reel the cast button acted broken when I reeled. Then I realized it was because from factory the spool tention was completely loosened and it wasn't catching. I just tightened the spool up and it works perfectly. (To anyone who isn't sure how to do so), first loosen the spool tension to where the spool slightly shifts back and forth and then tighten it just enough to stop the shifting, then on the 1-10 magnet brakes set it at 10 make a cast and after each cast lower the magnetic brake until you start to get a backlash, once you start to get a backlash you know to set the magnetic brake slightly higher. Plus of course using your thumb to stop the spool. I would easily recommend this reel to anyone. It's cheap enough a beginner can learn on it, someone needing a new reel, or even someone wanting an extra setup. ... show more

  • Good Quality, Great Value
Color: C:Right-Black Rhino-7.2:1
Great entry level reel with some nice features. Much nicer than some of the name brand options you would get for the same amount. Great option for someone looking to get into baitcasters without wanting to break the bank or buy junk. I have only run braid so far but it handles casting and returns well. Haven’t tested the drag system much since all I’ve snagged is runts but I’ll update when I do. Overall very very pleased! ... show more

  • Nice, but the Royal Legend edges it out, IMO.
Color: B:Left-Spindrift-7.2:1
I got the Spartacus II in the “spindrift” color. I was kind of skeptical on the exact color because I personally find it hard to capture a “true color” on camera, but they NAILED IT! I love this color, it’s absolutely beautiful. Beautiful light, pastel blue. Pros: •It’s a bait caster for about $40, so that’s cool. •It’s perfect for learning the baitcasting type of reel without spending a ton of your hard-earned money. •The drag star *clicks* when you adjust it, so that pretty nice for a reel this inexpensive. •I’d be remiss not to mention the color again, it’s unique (imo) •Bird’s nests (Or “professional overrun”, I’ve also heard “Backlash”) are easy to avoid if the magnetic brakes are up all the way and you have the spool tension set correctly for what you’re throwing. •You can straight-up launch some bait with this thing. When I do my part I can throw some baits close to 70 feet with a 7 Foot MH rod. And I’m not even good at it, yet. That might not be the point for some of y’all, but it’s fun. •it’s nice if you like to palm your reel, I find it to be very comfortable, though, I don’t ordinarily palm reels, I rest my thumb on the side, which I also find comfortable on this reel. Cons: • My particular reel felt very rough out of the box, exactly how I imagine a dry, or scratched bearing would feel while reeling. • The magnetic breaking system seems to have a less-than-linear influence depending on power level. For instance, when the magnetic breaking is set to the max, I don’t have to put my thumb on the spool at all to keep a bad bird’s nest with 12Lb. fluorocarbon, so that’s actually good, I guess. If I take the brake to 8 I seem to be able to achieve ~6 feet more distance or so, but you have to pay attention or the ‘nest is coming for you. BUT if I turn it to anything below 6, its like all the birds on earth built a giant nest in my reel while I wasn’t looking...so that’s neat. I’m sure there is a trick to it I don’t know yet but it seems off to me. •Only after two days, the gears are making noise louder than my Royal Legend did after months of use (before my friend borrowed it forever,lol) so that’s alarming. I’ll buy some grease and oil as it calls for in the instructions, but I didn’t expect to be needing this soon considering my past experience with KastKing. However it could just be my particular reel. I might update this review it after I oil and grease it. But for now it’s getting a 3.75/5 I’d still recommend it, but I’d probably buy the Royal Legend before I’d buy another Spartacus II. Update: The rough bearing sound has worked itself out, so that’s good news. I also changed my line from 12# Florocarbon to 30# braid and all my bird nest issues are gone. Florocarbon is not a friend of mine. The memory in the Florocarbon line I used is just like mono...garbage. ... show more

  • Worth the money
Color: A:Left-Stryker Green-7.2:1
I wanted a new reel and I kept seeing the kast king reels pop up and I really liked the green color. So I decided to take a chance with it without feeling how it reeled. And I got to say. This reel in just the few weeks I’ve had it has held up very nicely. I paired it with beyond braid 30# from the first picture. It’s held up great from little bass to pike. I enjoy it a lot and will order another one. Casts and retrieves just as smooth as my abu Garcia revo x or my lews Mach 2. I’m more than happy with the quality of the reel ... show more

  • No more doubting these guys
This reel is amazing. Folks told me they were good reels so I decided to put one through he'll and see how it did. A week after buying it, i took it to murrels inlet sc. Caught numerous flounder and redfish. Also two 3ft bonnethead sharks. The thing had mud in it half the time. Back to fresh water and caught numerous bass and striper. Several trips between salt and fresh water and never failed. The flicking drag still pulls smoothly! 4 years of he'll and this thing hasn't flinched. Don't be afraid to try them. The technology in this reel, and all of their products can't be touched in their price range. Period. ... show more

  • Great budget friendly.
Color: C:Left-Black Rhino-7.2:1
Yep, definitely works. Easy to adjust, reels in smooth, and fast! Did notice my pointer finger has to sit a little higher but that's okay. Appreciate how almost everything clicks, easy to adjust line tension with the clicks. Quality seems great and feels good in the hand. I have a Spartacus rod arriving tomorrow so we will see them how the combo does. ... show more
