The Bates Salty Hundo 150 is a casting reel built around a one-piece CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminium frame. The structure is designed for high rigidity when fishing with high power reserves. The 150 format increases line capacity while maintaining a compact, ergonomic profile. The drag is rated at 18 to 20 lb for fighting powerful fish. The mechanics use a 10+2+1 bearing assembly combined with a 100 mm aluminium crank. The Nautical Blue anodized finish is an anti-corrosion treatment designed for use in salty environments.
