The Akios Sportcast Shuttle 656 SCM fishing reel has a standard capacity of 300 yards of 15lb mono. Gear ratio is 5.3:1 which means to the man on the end of the rod that for every turn of the handle he will retrieve 23 inches of line.

The Shuttle sits nice and low on the fishing rod so should fit the smallest of hands with comfort.

Simon Bradbury, the creator of this new fishing tackle company has 33 years experience of working in the tackle industry.
Simon spent 16 years with Pure Fishing, Abu`s parent company.  He was in charge of product development at Abu in the UK and this has given him a huge insight and the experience on what works, and more importantly what does not work on modern, high performance sea fishing reels.

There can be no person better qualified than Simon to develop a new, advanced range of sea fishing tackle.
