Gear Review: Cabela’s Arachnid

The innovative baitcaster from Cabela's is worth a hard look.

What is it?

Cabela’s Arachnid Baitcasting Reel

What does it do?

Cranks in big fish like a champ; and looks good doing it.

What sets it apart?

The T-Wing’s wide line guide reduces tangles and provides less line friction and the Magforce-Z cast control provides longer, more fluid casts. To the angler, that means increased accuracy, longer casts and less time dealing with those nasty rat nests.

How do I use it?

The reel provides 13.2 pounds of maximum drag pressure, comes standard with a durable and corrosion-resistant Zaion star drag system. You just have more control with this reel, and that means more time with your bait in the water, which means more fish.

How much?

$179.99
