Shimano TEK600HGA Tekota 600 Conv. Levelwind Star Drag Reel, RH 4BB | 6.3:1 | 24lb | 16/390, 20/300, 25/240 | The Shimano Tekota A Line Counter enters the market with a fresh new makeover upgrading the reel in terms of style, performance and size. Built around Shimano's S-Compact body design, the Tekota A is a 20% smaller than its predecessor making it easy to store and more comfortable to use without sacrificing performance or power!.
Lightweight sturdy reel that holds plenty of line.
Opted for one of these as a catfishing reel after considering a Fathom 15 LW and an Abu Garcia C3. I've fished a non levelwind fathom in the surf and like it, and I've fished with a C3 before. This reel is better than either by far. Although intended as a trolling reel, and I've seen people not recommend it for casting, it actually casts very well, better than the C3 by a long shot, and only the levelwind slows it down compared to my surf fathom. Holds plenty of 50 pound braid. Have it on an 8 foot St Croix Mojo Cat rod. Expensive setup, but one of the best feeling I've ever had. I know many people see the C3 as sort of a gold standard reel for catfishing but it's honestly incredibly overrated. This reel is worth the premium especially at this price (which is also cheaper than the Fathom). The drag and retrieve are both super smooth. The synchronized level wind also helps with casting distance and prevents line wear when drag is pulled. Very light for the spool size and drag spec. I'll likely buy another one of these eventually.
