Product description

The APEX Magnum delivers great on-the-water performance. This wide body-low profile baitcast provides the power and durability you need with increased line capacity and a super strong and smooth drag rated at 17. 6 lbs. Featuring ten stainless steel ball bearings, extra long carbon fiber handle that won’t bend or break, and the patent pending Drag Tracking Technology DTT gives you the casting distance and fish fighting power needed in an inshore reel. The patent pending “Drag Tracking Technology” system on the new Ardent Magnum Reel allows the level wind eyelet to track in parallel with the line location on the spool as line is being pulled from the reel in drag mode. This reduces the chance of line break on large fish by eliminating the sharp angles caused by the level wind eyelet being out of sync with the line location on the spool in drag mode as is the case on all other reels.

• Engineered with Drag Tracking Technology that eliminates line breakage caused by the level wind eyelet being out of sync with the line location on the spool
• Designed with the big fish in mind; smooth and powerful drag is rated at 17.6 pounds; equipped with a 270 degree magnetic brake system
• Quality 10+1 ball bearing system produces incredibly smooth long-distance casting; line capacity of 360 yards of 10 pound monofilament line
• An extra-long carbon fiber handle and cast aluminum frame ensure long-lasting performance

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the max drag of CW-303D
Answer:	The manufacturer informed me that the light produces about 250 lumens.
Question:	Is this reel good for led core line and trolling
Answer:	Yes, it is very comfortable. It is easily adjustable. I have a small head and it works great for me while reading in bed and not disturbing my husband.
Question:	What size for 10 colors of lead core line? thinking of getting one and putting suffix 832 lead core, but i don't want a huge reel, using it for trout
Answer:	It is a very bright white light that casts light forward of the headlamp. There is peripheral red light that is noticeable, however does not cast any light forward. Personally, I seldom notice it when looking forward into the white light. If this bothers Tyler, simple wrap a piece of black friction tape or other opaque tape around the red ring. Guaranteed, you won't be bothered by the red light anymore.
Question:	What size for 10 colors of lead core line? thinking of getting one and putting suffix 832 lead core, but i don't want a huge reel, using it for trout
Answer:	The whole front of the thing is the lid. You press down and out from behind the On/Off button. Once the thing is open it looks like there's more inside than should be there. It's tightly engineered. So when I put fresh batteries into mine, I had to replace it carefully to make it line up. Then press it closed and it's happy. These are handy, but not the most intuitive with the battery changing
