Within an all-metal chassis, the Hook And Hunt OT 5000 Series Double Rocker Spinning Fishing Reel handles heavy freshwater and saltwater angling. At a 5.2:1 gear ratio, the 8-10 kg drag system stops aggressive river species. Under the new 5000 series designation, this model expands line capacity and raises maximum drag by 2 kg over the OT 4000.
Key Features
- Double Rocker Handle: 115mm dual-grip arm for balanced cranking and increased power. It stops handle-wobble during high-tension retrieval.
- Full Metal Body: Rigid alloy construction for heavy-duty structural integrity. Frame remains stiff when pulling large river fish.
- 5.2:1 Gear Ratio: High-speed internal gearing for rapid 5.2x line recovery. Retrieves lures quickly to avoid river debris.
