KastKing Royale Legend II Baitcasting Reel - 17.64LB Carbon Fiber Drag and 8 Magnet Braking System for Enhanced Performance

R. Amode: New to bait casting and After doing some research I came up with this reel. There was a learning curve but it worked well. Since this is my first bait caster I have nothing to compare it with since all my other reels are spinners. So I have to say for the price and performance it works well and it was good choice for my first bait caster.

mike immordino: I’ve used a lot of rods and reels over the years. A lot of really good brand names like Shimano, Abba Garcia, these are definitely up there in that category . I bought a rod and reel . Thy came to the house in one day . Set them up and hit the water. The sensitivity and hooks sets on these rods are amazing.
The reels are a well. I liked them so much I bought a few more set ups . 👍
Definitely give them a try

Stephen Elmore: A year ago I'd never heard of Kastking . Last year I bought a Kastking boonie hat for my daughter to go fishing with and she really likes it .
I decided I wanted a new baitcaster reel to put on an old (old old) pistol grip Uglystik 1st gen so I didn't want to spend the big bucks I'd spent on the reel already on it . Ok so they make cool boonie hats but does that equate to fishing gear . I read a bunch of reviews , watched a bunch of YouTube videos and decided to give this one a try , especially since I could get a lefty for the same price as a rightie .
Man I'm glad I did . I'd never spooled my own braided before but decided to try out some Kastking power line . It was super easy to fill (after watching a bunch of YouTube videos to see the best way for me ) and in hardly any time I was casting a practice 1/2oz rubber frog .
The first cast was SO SMOOTH I got a huge birdsnest so I locked the brakes down as tight as they could go then loosened little by little until I was almost birdsnesting but not quite and that frog was going at least a 1/3 farther than it did on the prior reel and the leftie handle took about 2 casts to feel natural , no more switching hands after...

Mike wMike w: I baught this as my first baitcaster after fishing my whole life I figured I'd give it a try. Honestly I couldn't have been happier preformed well looks good and a good price point. I will have to say though the only thing I dislike about it is the fact that it does feel a little cheap it's mostly a plastic material but don't let that discourage you from buying it I must have casted it a couple hundred times this past weekend and everything worked as it should.

MemoMemo: No me gusto se uso 4 veces y después ya no botaba el seguro, se quebró uno de los resortes internos que quitaban el seguro a la hora de recuperar hilo.

DeconDecon: I say, Me Too because there are several reviewers just like me. My first! Of note I am 74. My family and buddies asked Why Really? I said it was time for something new. A new way to bass fish. You'll be sorry they said!
My research and the cautioning of 'da gang' did back me off to what I hoped was reasonable yet fully functional. I decided to give the nod to KastKing. The package arrived along with some 12lb braid. Spooled it and off to the Tennessee River. Ok, so it didn't last long...what a mess and what disappointment. A grandson heard the story and said, did you set it up? I said huh? If you're a newbie read the instructions. 3 hours on the bird's nest and 1 hour with the instructions and YouTube. Back to the river 2 days later. So, the day, it wasn't perfect but at my age that Ship has Sailed long ago. I did improve the distance and decreased the 'tangles'. I have caught a few bass in my time but what happened later that day on a perfect cast under some overhang was the sign your never too old for new and a Thrill!
That's my KASTKING in my right hand holding a 22" 4.48 lb Bass.
Thanks, KastKing! You know how fishermen are. I sure there's another reel in my future....

Mr Leslie Crowther: Very clean tidy finish, looks excellent, lovely looking bit of kit and it's as smooth as silk, not only on the retrieve but also in free spool, can't wait to get out and give it a go.
