Features:

  • The Tica Flash Surf FS10000 is a surf reel that offers fishermen a precision build and silky smooth feel at a comfortable price point.
  • This reel weighs in at a light 535gm, making it ideal for building an ultra-light surf combo.
  • Carbon is used for the frame, rotor, and handle, to keep the weight down but also to keep the frame rigid and strong.
  • There is a small lubrication port on the main body, giving easy access to lube the main gear.
  • The 5.2:1 gear train runs fast and smooth on 7 RRB ball bearings, giving a line retrieval rate of 114cm per handle turn.
  • Fitted with a long shaft and long cast spool and a slow oscillation lets line wind perfectly back onto the spool with no line overlap, resulting in perfect long casts.
  • The spool line guard system is now almost silent. The spool also features a stainless line keeper button which can be used as a casting memory device, simply loop your line around the protruding button after your perfect cast. Now wind the line back in and cast again, the line will stop going out when it reaches the loop you put in the button - and your cast will stop at exactly the same distance/length as your initial cast.
  • There is an extra drag knob with this reel. The quick-set drag features an integrated preset control which effectively gives you a similar concept to a bait feeder reel, and is perfect for stray lining. Crank the main drag up, then set your desired maximum drag with the small preset knob. Then back the main drag off to put your reel into Baitfeeder mode - simple!
  • The main drag has a max drag of 12kg.

Specifications

  • 7 sealed precision stainless steel Rust Resistant Ball bearings (RRB)
  • Anti-twist line roller with bearing.
  • Forged aluminium spool

  • Long shaft for better line winding.
  • Right/ left the interchangeable handle.
  • Soft-touch handles knob.
  • Solid aluminium bail wire.
  • Quick-set drag system.
  • Smooth powerful carbon drag washers.
  • Slow oscillation improves line lay on the spool with a slower up and down stroke, reduces friction when line flows out for a longer distance casting.
  • Weight; 535g
  • 5.2-1 retrieve ratio, retrieves 114cm line per handle turn.
  • Max drag 12kg
  • Capacity 285/25lb, 310m/0.30mm

Dont use Tica my self so cant commenton the reel/brand, I use Shimano Ultergra1400xtc reels and Penn 525 free spools for all surfcasting.
Your in Gisborne?  I would suggest contacting the Gizzy Surfcasting Club as some of the best fisherman in NZ are there and will help if asked direct,
 Chat to people like Marko,Scotty,Big Al  or even Colin down at the tackle shop- Should join the club
