Kingsnake II
The Kingsnake II is our newest premium spinning reel, built for anglers who want ultra-light weight without sacrificing strength or smoothness. With a full carbon fibre body and rotor, this reel is incredibly light yet rock-solid under load.
The CNC-machined aluminium shallow spool and handle keep things balanced and responsive, while the rubberised grip gives you control when your hands are wet or cold. Inside, the sealed carbon fibre drag delivers smooth, consistent pressure, backed up by sealed handle O-rings and main shaft for added protection in harsh saltwater conditions.
With 8+1 stainless steel bearings, the Kingsnake II feels buttery smooth on the retrieve, and our "Tight Wrap" line lay reduces line bite-in, helping you cast further and fish lighter lines with confidence.
At just 174g, it’s the perfect lightweight match for our Black Diamond Soft Plastics rods – crisp, balanced, and built for long sessions on the water.

Reviews
Used the Kingsnake II on the new Kuro Ika egi rod for the first time and bagged out on squid first outing. Very light reel, well sealed with O rings, excellent smooth drag, beautifully balanced. Plenty of bearings and tech. Easy to maintain. In a word - superb.
