teben sea tiger ii 4000

The Teben Sea Tiger II 4000 is a heavy-duty spinning reel known for its impressive power-to-size ratio. It is specifically designed to handle the corrosive nature of saltwater while providing the torque needed for larger fish.

Key Technical Specifications

• Max Drag: Up to 20kg (44 lbs), which is exceptionally high for a 4000-series reel.
• Gear Ratio: 4.9:1, prioritizing "cranking power" (torque) over high-speed retrieval.
• Line Capacity: Approximately 300m of 0.35mm line.
• Bearings: Features high-quality, corrosion-resistant stainless steel ball bearings.

Standout Features

• Full Waterproof Sealing: The body and drag system are sealed to prevent saltwater and sand from entering the internal gears.
• Reinforced Body: Built with a high-strength composite/graphite frame to keep it lightweight without sacrificing rigidity.
• Metal Power Handle: Equipped with a CNC machined aluminum handle and an ergonomic "T-Bar" or round knob for better grip during long fights.
• Instant Anti-Reverse: Eliminates back-play in the handle for better hook sets.

Best Use Cases

Given its specs, this reel is a "workhorse" for:

• Inshore Casting: Targeting medium to large saltwater species like Sea Bass or Bluefish.
• Light/Micro Jigging: Perfect for vertical jigging where high drag is required to pull fish away from rocks.
• Heavy Freshwater: Great for large catfish or carp that require significant stopping power.
