THE BEASTMASTER 9000 POSSESSES UNPRECEDENTED POWER, SPEED AND DURABILITY THANKS TO THE BRUSHLESS GIGA-MAX MOTOR.

With 10% more winding power than the previous model and 25kg of Cross Carbon Drag output, the Beastmaster is ready to tackle monsters of the deep. Regardless of the load applied to the reel, the Constant Speed Mode maintains a consistent retrieve speed without the loss of any cranking power during the fight. The Heat-Free system allows for heat to be released from vents in the side plate, ensuring reliable performance. It also features a aluminium clod forged clutch lever and a LCD screen with an English menu. To reach deeper depths, the reel can be spooled with up to 900m of PE 8 braid.

THE FORCEMASTER 9000A IS AN ELECTRIC REEL BUILT TO BATTLE MONSTERS OF THE DEEP WHEN MANUAL WINDING IS NOT AN OPTION.

Designed for deep dropping in New Zealand conditions, the new Forcemaster 9000A incorporates the Shimano Heat Free system which allows for the reels internals to always remain cool during the fight, even when you need to apply the reels maximum drag pressure of 25KG. This means there is no time wasted in between drops as the reel will continue to perform at the optimum levels of output during the large pressures and time spent working. An extremely strong Hagane aluminium Body provides the reel with a rigid frame that counters the force applied to it when winching a fish in. Bringing your rig back from the depths is super-efficient with the reel being able to retrieve over 140m of line per minute (dependant on pressures), this gives you the ability to reset your baits back into the strike zone with ease. The Forcemaster 9000 is a highly dependable 12-volt electric fishing machine with plenty of cranking power and line capacity that will help you explore unchartered waters.
