Kaida Tournos GS 6500 Reel

The Kaida TOURNDS GS 6500 is a fast-drag carp reel, a new product from Kaida in 2025. Fast-drag reels are currently very popular among professional carp anglers. The main advantage of a fast-drag reel is that the drag can be tightened in half a turn, compared to 3-4 turns for a conventional reel. Fast-drag reels are also lighter than baitrunner reels. The endless screw ensures smooth line lay, which facilitates long casts. The Kaida TOURNDS GS features seven ball bearings in the winding system and one bearing in the line guide. The reel has a gear ratio of 4.1:1, weighs 480 grams, and has a maximum drag load of 10.5 kg. The handle features a detachable knob and can be adjusted for either right- or left-handed use. The line retrieve is 80 cm per handle turn. The spool is made of metal. The reel is equipped with an anti-reverse device. The body is made of impact-resistant plastic, which allows for reduced weight. Thanks to its features, affordable price, and striking design, this model has become a bestseller among feeder and carp anglers.
