The ARMORY 25 Round Profile Level Wind Reel features the patented Maxel Integrated Lever Drag System ( KARMAN system ) , which is aimed at eliminating spool lock when a lure gets snagged between rocks. This upgrade enables the spool shaft to connect more effectively with the drag lever. When the drag lever is in the Free position, the drag plate disengages with the spool smoothly even after a lengthy fight. This means the reel goes to zero drag without any drag force.In addition the KARMAN System delivers more precise drag adjustment as the setting position is more accurate.
Also the feel of the movement of the drag lever is greatly improved. Anglers can feel the suction when moving the drag lever from higher to the Free position. The movement is easier and faster.
