Bates Fishing Co. Hundo Baitcasting Reel

Introducing the Bates® Hundo - roughly twenty percent smaller, and one hundo percent Bates with the same quality and craftsmanship you’ve come to expect.

The Hundo features a gunmetal grey anodized aluminum frame, fully CNC'd from 6061-T6 bar stock on their 9 axis machine. And just to be sure there's no gimmicks or simple metallic coatings, they've left a few of the machine paths roughed into the frame making the Hundo an industrial marvel. Beyond just a smaller, 100 sized frame, this reel boasts Bates' new dual braking system along with a shallower spool so the finesse fisherman can easily dial in lighter lines and lures. They've upgraded some internal components as well, including lighter aluminum gears and improved bearings, which are a combination of 10 HAC stainless steel bearings plus 2 high precision NMB ball bearings, and 1 one-way stainless steel ball bearing.

If your target species or preferred rigging demands a slighter, but more fine-tuned machine, you won’t be disappointed in the Hundo.
