I know a lot of you are thinking this is the same color combo as they previously had released, the "Mahi Edition" but thats not the case. The green and blue are much more vibrant and stand out pretty significantly. The best part about this Limited Edition color...it comes in at the same price and sizes (7-15wt) as the other Kraken XLA models. I'm in love.
Our Kraken reel series has been our most popular reel for big game angling enthusiasts since its release in early 2013. The series is growing with this extra large arbor edition of the Kraken with an all new, extra powerful drag system!
Despite the XLA's massive diameter, it is extremely lightweight for its size. The drag system has been completely updated and strengthened to account for the wider range of leverage on the arbor. In our testing phases on this reel, we managed several sailfish in Mexico up to 100lbs, and dozens of other bluewater species ranging from dorado to tuna. The rapid line pickup kept us in control of the lengthy battles, helping us connect to the fish in a fraction of the time whether we were frantically reeling in as they charged at the boat, or simply gaining as much progress as we could while slugging it out in tug of war. The speed placement of the handle allows for the fastest retrieve while still maintaining plenty of power, even on the biggest of fish you'll encounter. Despite the smaller circumference of the handle rotation, there is plenty of cranking power to spare.
The fully sealed, 6 stacked carbon disc drag system is by far the most powerful drag system we have ever developed. We not only believe this to be the strongest drag in the Allen lineup, but one of the best there is. Period.
Assembled in the USA
