Fishing Gear: Abu Garcia C3 Catfish Special Round Reel

Abu Garcia C3 Catfish Special Round Reel

Description and Application: Born from the C3 round reel platform, the Ambassadeur Catfish Special fishing reel offers anglers a unique package backed with proven components designed specifically for catfish fishing. Performance starts with three stainless steel ball bearings + 1 roller bearing system and a smooth and consistent Carbon Matrix drag system. The 6-pin centrifugal brake delivers controlled casting while the extended bent handle with power knob gives anglers additional torque and power for hard-pulling fish. The synchronized level wind system ensures even line lay and a smooth retrieve. Custom color and graphics.

Staff Perspective:A classic reel for a classic fish—with a little vanity sprinkled in. Not only has this long-standing reel been proven in the heat of battle, but they never seem to die. Now add a cool paintjob to the mix, and you’ve got a reliable reel that every catfisherman will need to add to their arsenal and collection. I’ve got one on my mantle in my mancave, never to be used, but as a reminder of what toughness is all about. The catfish.

Cost:$149.99-$179.99
