02MATERIALS
Composite body meets aluminium spool
The reel combines a durable composite body and rotor with an aluminium main spool. This pairing ensures structural strength while maintaining a manageable weight of 288 grams. The composite materials provide resistance to environmental factors, supporting the reel's longevity through repeated use.
CONTROL
Precise braking via multi-disc drag
The multi-disc front drag system offers fine-tuned control when fighting fish. With a maximum drag capacity of 5.0 kilograms, it provides sufficient stopping power for medium-sized species. The strong, ergonomic handle features a comfortable knob, allowing for secure grip even when wet or under tension.
CAPACITY
High-capacity spool for longer lines
Designed as a high-capacity model, the Virtus 4000 holds 220 metres of 0.285mm line or 164 yards of 12lb line. This volume is ideal for casting distance or targeting fish that require extra line to escape. The foldable aluminium handle adds convenience for storage in tackle boxes or bags.
