Quantum Energy S3 Baitcast Fishing Reel

The Quantum Energy S3 PT baitcasting reel comes loaded with Performance Tuned features and Quantum’s superb Flippin’ Switch technology that performs under pressure from even the most demanding of anglers. The Flippin’ Switch technology allows you to cover more water quickly by depressing the thumbar, making a short cast, and re-engaging the reel without turning the handle. When back-trolling, you can keep one hand on the motor while the other can release line and re-engage. This reel features a high 7.0:1 gear ratio that retrieves 29-inches of line per turn with 10+1 (2 PTS, 8 BB, 1 RB) bearings that can stand up to your toughest demands. The Micro-Adjust Adjustable Centrifugal System 3.0 allows you to dial in the exact amount of braking force required without removing the side cover; this allows for finer adjustments to be made quickly when conditions change. With a properly adjusted ACS system, your casts can be freakishly long. The multi-drag disk design perfectly combines carbon washers, for stopping power and good drag lockdown, with ceramic washers, for drag consistency and smoothness. The max drag is 18-pounds. The continuous anti-reverse clutch is made from precision stainless steel to withstand bone jarring hooksets without any backward spool movement. There is zero friction thanks to the pinion gear being held in place by two ball bearings, eliminating contact with the spool shaft during casting. Hot Sauce lubrication also helps to lower friction throughout the reel. The one-piece aluminum frame construction is sturdy enough for the most demanding anglers while still remaining lightweight; resists torque from big fish. The bayonet side cover makes it easy to access the spool with just the press of a button. Several coatings protect the reel from the effects of saltwater. It has a mono capacity of 135-yards of 12-pound tested line and a braid capacity of 170-yards of 30-pound tested line. Right-hand retrieve. The Energy S3 PT makes the most of advancing technology to bring you a performance reel you can trust to last.
