The Pilot 6" Captain Series Reel

CARBON FIBRE REINFORCED NYLON SPOOL

Developed in partnership with an Australian polymer manufacturer, the Carbon Fibre Reinforced Nylon spool delivers serious strength and durability without the added weight. The result is a reel that performs harder and lasts longer in the conditions Australian anglers fish in.

CAPTAIN'S WHEEL DRAG

The vacuum-coated Captain's Wheel drag is smooth, easy to adjust, and built for long fights. Polished brass plates paired with PTFE-coated woven glass washers handle extreme heat without losing performance, so you stay in control from the first run to the net.

DRAG ON/OFF SWITCH AND FISH ALERT BUTTON

A quick-release drag switch on the rear lets you go from locked down to free spool in a second, while the fish alert button means you'll never miss a run. Set it, step back, and let the reel do the work.

RAPID RETRIEVE HANDLE SYSTEM

The inner rapid retrieve handle plate gives anglers up to 30% faster line recovery - ideal for spinning lures or keeping up with pelagic fish moving toward the rocks. The standard outer handle remains at 1:1 for raw stopping power when you need it most.

SPARE CUSTOM HANDLE KNOB

Includes a spare handle knob that replaces the balance knob to give you two outer handles, or swap the inner knob for a larger option for extra comfort and grip during long sessions. Small detail, big difference on a full day's fishing.

STAINLESS STEEL FINISH

Finished with stainless steel name badges on the front and a decorative stainless steel base lock spring, the Pilot is built to handle salt, sand, and sun without showing it. Available in three colours with Alvey's famous stainless steel side cast mechanism at the heart of it all.
