What is it?
13 Fishing Concept A
What sets it apart?
With impressive power packed into a low profile baitcasting platform, the A3 draws its strength from the H.A.M. gears cut with Japanese Hamai precision from hardened brass. This yields the sturdy, double-tough guts that make this reel a true beast master, while the Bull Drag System rocks 30 pounds of straight-up stopping power. 13 Fishing packs all this within a sturdy HD aluminum frame and adds a dead stop anti-reverse system, along with an Arrowhead line guide system.
How do I use it?
The Concept A3 comes in four models evenly split between right- and left-hand options. The two with 6.3:1 gear ratios take up 28.8 inches of line per crank, while the two 8.1:1 models gather 37 IPC. All models include seven ball bearings and are rated for up to 240 yards of 12-pound braid. The Beetle Wing rapid access side plate allows convenient inner access, while Concept cork knobs ensure a comfortable, secure grip.

Angler’s insight:
Sometimes, you just gotta lay the smack down on big, ornery bass and the Concept A3 looks to be up to the task. From punching grass mats, to frogging the slop, you need a reel that won’t back down or take any caca from a hefty fish. Making this reel Trick Shop compatible enables anglers to choose their look by customizing the colors of various components. Moreover, adding Ocean Armor 2 Saltwater Protection Process helps the A3 withstand brackish environments with occasional saltwater crossover duty.
