GLOSSARY

Lo-Mass ® Drilled Spool System

The Lo-Mass Drilled Spool System is designed for anglers who require longer casts and can sacrifice line capacity to do so. The Lo-Mass spool features a large arbor that is cross-drilled to reduce its weight. By moving the arbor of the spool outward, the mass of the spool is closer to the rim of the spool. Like a lightweight bicycle wheel, where most of the mass lies in the tire, the majority of a Lo-Mass spool lies in the arbor and the line it is spooled with.

Machined Aluminum Handle Shank

Spinning and Offshore Spinning For increased strength and power.

Magnumlite ® Spool

Low Profile This spool provides extremely low startup inertia for increase line control and casting performance even when using lightweight baits or lures. This is accomplished through using lightweight aluminum alloys, extremely thin walls, and a unique design that moves the mass of the spool outward.
