Machined 6061-T6 Bar Stock aluminum with an ultra light carbon fiber frame, the Gladiator Carbon Fiber Reel was built to be strong and light weight. Constructed with a water proof, smooth drag system, this reel was also made to last. No need to use 5,6, and 7 weight reels to balance your heavy competition rods. The Gladiator competition rod was designed to be used with a light weight reel to keep the balance and the overall weight to a minimum. This light weight reel, balances the Gladiator Competition Rod perfectly!

The Gladiator CFX reel I purchased to go with my Highlander Stealth 10 ft 2 weight rod balanced the rod perfectly, had a smooth drag and free spooled ( picked up line quickly) with ease.
