Piscifun Carbon X Spinning Reels - Carbon Frame and Rotor, Light to 5.1oz Spinning Fishing Reel, 5.2:1-6.2:1 High Speed Gear Ratio Spin Reel, 10+1 Shieled BB Smooth Powerful Fishing Reel for Freshwater and Saltwater

I was looking for a new reel to pair with a rod I recently purchased. I have ordered piscifun reels before and have had a great experience with them. I decided to order another one. last one I ordered was a honor but I decided to give the carbon x a try when I saw the spec. I was pleasantly surprised then it came in the mail. the reel was packaged very well in a sturdy well marked box. inside the box was a felt bag with the reel inside. spun the handle on and added line. I was very impressed with the very nicely constructed reel. its light, smooth and very nice looking. I think this a great value and would pay much more for this reel. great value! after I lined the reel I needed to give this a try. went down to the lake to give it a whirl. the carbon x worked flawlessly. the bail was smooth, retrieved the line evenly. the reel handled every fish that came its way, even a larger pike that met its match. the carbon drag worked perfectly and I just fell I love with this reel. I will be ordering more carbon x reels and will be replacing all my older reels. don't even think twice, order this reel!!!

I bought the Carbon X as a replacement for my tired Mitchell 308 on my ultralight. I was extremely impressed with the fact it’s in a solid box and packaged in a velvet bag to ensure no damage.When I first screwed in the direct drive handle it was apparent this was not an equal replacement. It was so much smoother than the Mitchell even when it was new, feels solid, but lighter at the same time. The construction of the reel is amazing, I have been usingPiscifun for over a year now from bait casters to the Venom 5000 spinning reel for salmon and have been amazed with the quality and craftsmanship that goes into each reel. The Carbon X is no exception, I would go as far to say they have put even more into this reel and kept it at an affordable price point. If your hesitant to try it; don’t be, this reel will compete with reels that are twice the cost and I believe outperform them. Check out the Piscifun Facebook page and look at the overall reviews as well as the Piscifun Fishing Group page. Your getting amazing customer service with the reels as well. They make it a point to acknowledge the opinion you’ve given them regarding their product be it good or bad(which is something that doesn’t happen with other more well known brands). I can honestly say you will not be disappointed with this reel.

If you have not heard of or unsure of a Piscifun reel, let me tell you that you do not have anything to worry about; Piscifun makes an awesome reel. The Carbon X in particular is a beautiful reel that gets fish in the boat. It has incredibly smooth bearings, casts like a dream, and has a great drag! I have been fishing almost my entire life and have owned and used many brands of reels, from very cheap to rather expensive reels. Piscifun has delivered a budget-friendly reel that performs as well as if not better than some of the expensive reels I have owned. I have this particular Carbon X 2000 spooled up with 8lb fluorocarbon line for drop shot fishing for bass. The first time I took it out fishing I was very impressed with how easily I was able to cast with it and also with how smooth it was retrieving the line due to the quality bearings. The handle is very comfortable and ergonomic. I fished using this reel most of the day and was very impressed with how much I like the reel. In addition to it working well, it looks great! The black goes with any rod you might put it on and all the cut outs on the spool look rad! Speaking of the spool, it’s braid ready if you want to spool it up with braided fishing line. The reel body and rotor are made from carbon fiber so the reel is super light weight and very strong. This also makes for less fatigue when fishing for an extended period of time. All in all, I am in love with this reel! I will be replacing at least one of my other spinning reels with a Piscifun Carbon X and will be looking at purchasing other Piscifun spinning reels to replace the remainder of my spinning reels.

Ordered the Carbon X because I wanted something light and durable, something that I could fish with all day with minimal fatigue. Piscifun did a great job with this reel for sure. I have it strapped on a medium/fast power rod and the entire combo is incredibly light. In the hand, you can hardly feel the weight of this reel, it's extremely comfortable and there is no doubt in my mind that you will love this reel as well. The Carbon X has an extremely smooth and powerful drag as well. I opted for the 2000 size because I generally prefer a smaller reel, usually do to weight. I will for sure be ordering the next size up when I order again. Bigger spools provide for better line management and quicker intake of line. When drop shotting I've noticed that the fish swim at the boat quite a bit so with the quicker gear ratio of this reel and the bigger spool, catching up to these fish should not be an issue. The spool is braid ready so there is no need to tie on mono or fluorocarbon backing when getting your reel setup, simply just tie the braid to the spool and start loading er up. Overall construction of this real is top notch, I've already taken it apart to oil it as i do with every reel i own whether used or new and it appears as if there aren't any cheap components that will let you down, great stuff here! The last thing i want to comment on is the appearance, man this thing looks sick! I lied, the last last thing i want to comment on is the price point, how in the world is it possible to get a $200 reel quality wise for under $80, it shouldn't be possible but it is and it would be wise to take advantage of that right now!

Loved the look and price of this reel and the spec looked amazing, ordered and prayed it was as good as it sounded. Well it certainly was, lovely clutch that i have had purring on a number of occassions. I have well and truly tested this reel out on some rugged coastline chasing wrasse. On one session i landed 20 ballan wrasse to over 4lb from deep snaggy gullies, the reel handled these powerful fish easily. I am buying another of these reels and have nothing negative to say about them.

I ordered the 1000 size reel and couldn't be happier with my purchase. The weight is so low it's like it's barely attached to the rod. I went out fishing with my brother and he commented on it's good looks too. I have another much more expensive Shimano reel and the drag on this is a lot smoother. Bear in mind if you are using braid, when you tie the initial knot to the spool to get the line on there, make sure to secure the original knot on the spool with a little bit of tape. I would buy another one of these in the morning!

Very positive start until the drag stopped clicking and small fragments of metal were found in the spool. My biggest catch on this was probably a 3lb bream. So I’d certainly expect it to last a bit longer for the price.

Fabulous reel

Fast shipping. Reel appears to be excellent quality for the price . The 2000 carbon seems very Smooth & well balanced Also looks nice . Look forward to see how it preforms against the high end fishing reels . From my first impressions I think I’ll be buying more of these in different sizes.
