TROLLING & JIGGLING
SPEED GEARING MACHINED RIGID FRAME MAGNETIC CAST ASSIST PRE-SET & DRAG LEVER
Maxel 2-Speed system consists of two sets of stainless steel main and pinion gears, allowing anglers the option of a high-speed ratio or a power ratio for maximum torque. Maxel shifting system is designed to operate in a simple and reliable way: just push the shift button and handle in for low gear, offering you the power to fight big game fish; push button and pull handle out so as to switch back to high speed ratio for quick line retrieve.
COLD FORGED SPOOL & SIDEPLATES With Maxel latest cold forging technology, the super strong, cold forged aluminum spool and side plates stand up to line pressure and hard fighting stresses. Aircraft grade aluminum construction incorporating Maxel rigid machine technology. All Maxel reels feature a strong, rigid, one-piece fully machined aluminum frame. These monolithic bar-stock frames not only keep the moving parts in precise alignment, but also maintain exacting control tolerances under heavy loading while fighting big fish.
ANTI-CORROSION SS BEARINGS Maxel use top quality shielded stainless steel ball bearings in order to assure corrosion resistance and smooth operation on line release and retrieve.
HEAVY DUTY AND PRECISION GEARS Each Maxel reel is constructed around a high modulus, heat-treated, heavy duty stainless steel gear set for superior strength, smoothness and long life. Maxel Magnetic Cast Assist is designed to reduce backlash and improve casting distance by utilizing the magnetic field. The magnetic piece exerts an opposing force and assist with accurate adjustments. This feature is available on Maxel light jigging reel models.
CARBON DRAG SYSTEM Maxel unique Carbon Drag system delivers a wide range and smooth operation at all settings. The contaminant resistant carbon surfaces are treated with a precise amount of specially formulated Maxel drag grease that resists water absorption and maintains powerful drag settings. Constant, steady friction and excellent heat displacement are assured through the drag surface design. Maxel pre-set knob and drag lever are designed user-friendly for precise and constant drag settings from FREE (no drag pressure), to STRIKE (where you fight the fish), until FULL (provides extra drag pressure when you need it). Turn the pre-set knob clockwise for more drag pressure, counter-clockwise for less drag pressure.
ERGO POWER KNOB Maxel ergonomically shaped power knob provides maximum power with minimum fatigue for the game angler. The power knob takes full advantage of the natural dynamics of the human hand, wrist and forearm to help sustain power and endurance for the game angler.

RAPTURE SEADUST SLOW PITCH
The design of the Roll Core logo effectively communicates its structural concept. A High Resistance carbon core is wrapped by external High Modulus nano-carbon multiple layers. The former takes care of extreme efforts, the latter contributes to lightness, providing at the same time high sharpness and contrast to the torsion. Unbelievable! A true technology bomb expressly dedicated to Slow Jigging purists: rigorously one-piece blank structure, with three differentiated power rods designed for the exclusive use of the multiplier reel. For those who use it, a Seadust is an absolute pleasure. In action it’s light, precise, powerful and sensitive; resistant up to the extreme bending, it leaves no way out for the more combative fish, protecting the braided line thanks to the stress-absorbing properties of its carbon structure. CXC technology and acid guide configuration totally delete blank’s torsion and considerably reduce fighting fatigue.
SEALION OB
An Hi-Tech multiplier designed for trolling and specifically with braided lines. This is the right model to fish with the downrigger and with the drift lead; in fact, it features an increased capacity spool, granting the possibility to spool enough meters of the big diameter braided required. It is evident that for other specifications we did not change the good specs that made the Sea Wolf and the Sea Lion the best multipliers to be used on a boat. So also the Sea Lion OB features a machined 6061-T6 aluminium frame. This one piece frame is the best warranty you can have about the solidity and the reliability of the reel. All the gears are made from stainless steel, the only material that can last for countless years in an aggressive and salty environment. The spool and the side covers are made of cold forged aluminium, to keep them light weight but still very strong. The lever drag and the handle have ergonomic shape and are easy to access, because when you are fighting a big fish everything must be just handy. If you summarize what a Maxel OB is giving you: light weight, ergonomic design, 100% salt water proof, stainless steel and carbon drag washers, eight double shielded stainless steel bearings and much more, you will understand why we are giving 5 years warranty. Because a Maxel reel is made for fishing and it will do it well for a long, long time.

TRABUCCO LINE TECHNOLOGY
First of all, the contact with bait or lure, then link to the fish. Not a mere accessory, but a vital piece of tackle, which deserves the best attentions. Line and fishing are actually inseparable, since the sporting aspect has taken over the food needs.
SUPER HYDROPHOBIC POLYDIMETHYLSILOXANE COATING It’s quite difficult to memorize the full meaning of the acronym PDMS: it’s surely much easier to realize and remember its benefits. Each single strand of the Trabucco braids which are made with such technology is coloured and coated prior to the formation of the line, obtaining an unsurpassed level of protection. This was possible because the PDMS allows to create ultrafine membranes with high flexibility, photoresistance, waterproofness and ability to saturate microscopic rooms. On its surface, water forms tiny balls and slips away, and it is obvious that the salt and any chemical pollutants can’t penetrate and damage the fibers forming the line.
AUTHENTIC QUALITY
IN THE SHOP
The High Modulus Polyethylene is the best material for braided line’s production. Flexibility, linear strength and abrasion resistance are its quality factors. The future technology is already here, with the core of the monofilament featuring an unprecedented compactness for maximum cooperation between the molecules. PE braided lines with great strength per diameter, thanks to the high number of strands the profile is rounder, avoiding the line digging in the spool.
Series of monofilaments super resistant to shocks and knots, always reliable and top quality. A timeless classic of Italian fishing style. Hi-Tech monofilaments of the latest generation, each series is dedicated to a specific fishing techniques and it is essential due to its unique structure. A true hi spec competition line. Quality and performance always consistent. It is just the best way to build super strong and totally invisible hook length.
Super soft and abrasion resistant monofilaments, the best for spooling your reels. Specific lines available for Match, Surf Casting, Predator, Feeder and, generally, for all the techniques that need long casting performance.
TPS
A new range, specialized in the most common fresh and saltwater uses. Total reliability and a plus: the side cover which include the hole to hang each spool in the shop. The highest quality monofilament in the world. You will never find on the market any other monofilament with such a high strength test.
TRABUCCO PARALLEL SPOOLING
The spooling process is a step of production which can heavily affect the line’s performance and behavior while fishing. When the monofilament gets from the big spools to commercial, small ones, the machines involved in the operation can induce abnormal tension and torque, up to “loading” the line with a stress that will be given us back when we will wind it on to the reel’s spool or when we will use it to build up a rig or an hooklink. The solution used by Trabucco to overcome this problem on high end lines is the parallel spooling, a special process which cannot be applied on the whole range due to longer time process that, in the end, causes cost’s increase. A very special machine lays every coil parallel to the previous one under high precision and minimal tension, without inducing any torsion and generating the fantastic effect which everybody can see through a magnifying glass. Excess of accuracy? Maniacal care? Nothing wrong, because only in this way the line will come off the spool with unchanged specifications, the best precondition to get the optimum from it, with less tendency to tangle and with a smooth flow through rod’s guides.
The embossed logo inside the spool? A strong headache for those who try to produce copies of the extraordinary Trabucco lines, because replicating such a sophisticated spool involves a heavy investment that pushes up prices. In the future, it will gradually be applied to new products, making the authentic Trabucco production recognizable.
In each commercial package there is a tag showing the traditional code and the EAN barcode. By placing it on the display peg before the product, the retailer will be able to reorder the line without mistakes when all the spools will have been sold, ensuring its consistent availability within his shop.
