This is based off of our Super Power Braid- diameter 0.25mm **Q: What kast king model is comparible in size to the abu 7000?** A: I am looking at my Rover 60 and two Abu 6500C3 reels. The 60 is pretty much the same size as the Abus. **Q: Anyone know how this reel handles with big river cats** A: I caught a 63 pound blue cat using this reel. 80pound braid and 20 pound drag. The reel handled the task. Excellent reel for the money. **Q: Is the RX90 good for casting and retrieving ? Or only trolling and bottom fishing?** A: I wouldn't to big Rx 70 is the best size for casting surf 20 or 25lbs test line goes on nicely its about the same size as ambassador 7000. If you must remove level wind. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reel for the cost *by on Reviewed in the United States August 10, 2026* Great reels. I bought 2 and replaced "depth master" reels. These sing when casted, easy to dial in to minimize bird nests. My only suggestion to Kast King would be a bigger crank handle. I spool up 350 yards of braid, put a 5oz weight on then I troll out until the reel is empty. Cranking it in to seat that much line makes for a tired shoulder while trolling at 5mph. But it sets your line in nice and tight and mitigates future birdnests when casting even after landing a large fish. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rover 60 review and how to tune the reel. *by on Reviewed in the United States January 24, 2017* Just received the Rover 60 today. I'm blown away at the quality of this reel. I had to take it out and try it out. I had an old 7' glowstik and some cheap Mustad 20lb test laying around so I assembled it all together and tied on a 1.5 ounce sinker. Keep in mind this line was very stiff and has high memory so it's not what I intend to use but the reel handled fine it nonetheless. I plan on using it for catfishing and obviously the Abu Garcia C3 6500 has been the king in this realm. So I will compare the two even though this reel costs half what a C3 does on Amazon (both are sold at a great price on Amazon). Overall build quality is just as good. Lots of stainless steel parts on both. Casting and retrieving they are the same (smooth). The line guide does its job and lays line flat on both. The drag is a little smoother on the C3 6500 but the KastKing drag still operates very smooth. The KastKing at its price point, to be fair, should be compared to the cheap Chinese Abu 6500S models that actually cost about $15 more than the KastKing. But those two aren't really comparable because the KastKing Rover 60 beats the 6500S hands down in every way. I actually like the full thumb bar on the KastKing over the Abu's small thumb push button. The only thing I don't care for on the KastKing Rover is the grips on the retrieving handle are EVA foam. I personally would have preferred just a basic hard plastic but that can be fixed later if they wear out. Now tuning this reel seems complicated to those that are new to conventional reels but its actually very easy. Assuming you already have the reel mounted and spooled with line (hopefully of decent quality), this is all you have to do.1. Rig the rod with whatever weight/lure you intend to cast.2. Tighten the spool tensioner knob pretty tight (this is the silver knob on the same side as the retrieving handle).3. Tighten down the brake knob somewhere around half way, maybe a little more tight than halfway. (This is the knob on the opposite side of the reel.)4. Hold rod up at a 45 degree angle with your weight/lure hanging down about 12-15 inches from the rod tip.5. Press thumb bar to release the line. The weight/lure should fall to the ground in a controlled manner and you shouldn't have any backlash or very little. If it has a lot of backlash tighten the brake knob more. Repeat this step till you get a controlled drop with little to no backlash.once you achieve this you are ready to cast. When casting press the thumb bar release and press your thumb against the spool to hold the line in place. When you cast just pull your thumb off the spool slightly. Just before the weight/lure hits the water apply pressure to the spool with your thumb again. If it backlashes tighten your brake a little more. Don't try to sling the lure/weight too aggressively. I was able to acveive 60 yard casts with a smooth throw.***note*** a reviewer had claimed his reel wasn't working. When he tried to reel it the spool wouldn't turn. Mine did the same and scared me when I first received it. Tighten the star drag so.e and it should start retrieving/spinning the spool. Hope this helps. This is a great reel. Cat fisherman spread the word! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good reel for the price *by on Reviewed in the United States May 1, 2018* This is my second Rover Round 60 reel and I have a 70 model as well. They are definitely worth their price! I like the 60s better because of the push bar for casting and their regular handle. Very sturdy construction and excellent drag. I have no problem casting either as long as I set the tension right to the bait/weight that I'm using.I use these reels for flatheads and they are more than capable. I run braid but these could easily fit plenty of 30lb mono. I just spooled 250 yrds of 65lb braid on my newest one. The 70 model has more 40lb mono on it then I'll ever need.I haven't had any of the grinding issues on the 60s but the 70 makes a little noise when I reel. Does not affect how it operates though.Update: 1-19-19After a solid season of catfishing both the 60 and 70 series are quite noisy during casting and retrieving. I have disassembled them and lubed every moving part and bearing but the sound is still there. They still handle fish fine but the grinding noise is very noticeable- especially casting. It appears to come from the worm gear inside the reel on the side with the handle. Still acceptable for the price. ## Frequently Bought Together - KastKing Rover Round Baitcasting Fishing Reel, Perfect Conventional Reel for Catfish, Salmon/Steelhead, Striper Bass and Inshore Saltwater Fishing Reel, Reinforced Metal Body - Reaction Tackle Braided Fishing Line - Pro Grade Power Performance for Saltwater or Freshwater Fish - Colored Fishing Line Braid for Extra Visibility - KastKing SuperPower Braided Fishing Line - Abrasion Resistant Braided Lines – Incredible Superline – Zero Stretch – Smaller Diameter – A Must-Have! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/25665171-rover-round-baitcasting-fishing-reels-perfect-reel-for-catfish-max](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/25665171-rover-round-baitcasting-fishing-reels-perfect-reel-for-catfish-max) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
