Zephyr Spinning Reels

2nd reel! And I'll be buying a third. This handles like a baitcaster in the handle. It does not have lag or momentum in the handle like other spinning reels. It stop exactly where you want, everytime like a baitcaster. It makes using a spinning reel for many bass lures completely doable. I'm really not sure why some people hate on kastking so much....but this is a very very nice real for the price range. With anti reverse" which is useless" cough, braid ready, smooth reeling L&R hand,bfs capable because its ultra light weight... It's a tremendous reel. I have the 500 on a spin BFS trout rod setup and another 2000 on a bass setup. Love these reels

This is an amazing reel. I noticed the price and decided to give it a try. I went for the 3000 version. I loaded it with 15lb braid on a 6ft6in rod and took it out kayak fishing. After only a few casts I switched it for my go to rig, which is a Pflueger President on the same 6ft6in rod. The Pflueger casts a mile with 15lb braid, the KastKing was just so-so and just didn't cast as far as the Pflueger did using the same lure. I really wanted to like this reel so I decided to give it another go, but with 10lb braid to a 10lb flourocarbon leader on the same rod. What a huge difference- this thing casts soooooooo far, is super smooth, and is so quiet. It has become my main rig and has been fantastic. Even casting into the wind with a small rooster tail, this thing just flew, and with a slightly larger lure it went even further. The Pros: Wow, this reel looks really good and is super light. casts a mile, seems to love the 10lb braid. It is just so smooth. The cons: Although it didn't cast as far with the 15lb braid as my Pflueger did, it really wasn't that bad so I am going to say that I don't see any cons to this reel. The price: This was in a perfect price point and certainly didn't break the bank. I got it with a 20% off deal and you just can't beat that at all. Overall: This was such a good reel I decided to buy another one (the Spartacus II- you can read my review on that one as well) and I think I have become a KastKing fan so far. Now if the darn fish would just bite...

I've been using the KastKing Zephyr Spinning Reel for a few days now and I have to say I'm impressed with its performance. The reel is lightweight yet sturdy, which makes it comfortable to hold and use for extended periods of time. The smoothness of the drag system is exceptional, allowing me to easily control the tension when reeling in fish. The spool is large enough to handle a decent amount of line, but still compact enough to not weigh the reel down. The bail system is also smooth and easy to operate. The reel is designed with a high-quality construction, featuring a corrosion-resistant graphite body and rotor, and stainless-steel bearings. This provides a high level of durability and ensures the reel will last a long time with proper care and maintenance. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the KastKing Zephyr Spinning Reel and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a reliable and well-made spinning reel. It's a great value for the price and performs well beyond its cost.

Certainly a nice reel. Smooth, drag works well, just a good all around. The only reason it isn't 5 star is the size. I typically get the 2000 series reels for walleye and bass fishing (pan fish of course), but this reel is smaller than the others I have. Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing, but it is noteworthy. Time will tell if it holds up to many hours of fishing.

Love this reel!! Smaller and large fish with it and no problems

The KastKing Zephyr 1000 is lighter than most reels I’ve owned and runs silky smooth with its 7+1 bearings. The carbon drag handles bass and panfish with no hiccups, and the CNC spool lays braid evenly without wind knots. After weeks of use, it still feels tight and solid. Only minor gripe is the small knob, but overall it’s a fantastic ultralight reel for the money.

Built very nicely, clean design, quality looks great and feels great feels very smooth it’s a bit heavy but that just means it’s built tough. The got the 3000 size and it’s the same size as a daiwa regal 2500. Definitely worth the money and worth the try.

Lightweight and smooth! Paired this with a 6'6 UL TFO panfish 2 rod and strung it with 4lb finesse braid with 6lb fluro leader. Dont hesitate to buy this the shallow spool helps cast 1/64-1/32oz jigs a mile. Smooth drag and was handling slab crappie and bluegill with ease. You cant beat this value for the performance. This is my 4th kastking spinning reel and all have been superb. As far as budget reels go I wouldn't go with any other brand. Im sure this reel could handle big bass. If you are lookin for a ultralight reel pull the trigger and get one of these! God bless and tight lines!

Económico y funcional, para presas med-pequeñas, para mis hijos principiantes.

If you're looking for a great looking and ridiculously smooth (And I mean that) reel that is durable reel for your light setup, seriously just stop here and get it. The reel is so buttery smooth there's no rattling, shaking, whirring noises, no wiggling handle like you'd expect at this price point. The manufacturing tolerances are as close to perfect that I've ever used. Buying a second one to have as a backup if this one ever breaks lol.

Good reel 500 size for trout fishing

Works great, very smooth, great casting!

Amazing reel really happy with it and surprised on quality I've always been Shimano reels for decades now and Shimano is the king of reels but I'm glad to add this KastKing to my 20 sets. I had hard time deciding 2000 or 3000 model because there's not enough videos or pictures of it so hope these pictures help with deciding on size. Glad I got the 3000 use it for cranking lures for Pike and Bass 7.1ft rod medium heavy:) luv the green set up
