Couldn't load pickup availability
The Akios Nitron F-16 Overhead Surf Reel is a re-engineered long-distance casting reel built for serious surfcasters who demand precision, power, and control in demanding surf conditions.
Designed around a CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminium X-frame, the Nitron F-16 delivers extreme rigidity with minimal flex, ensuring maximum energy transfer during casting and complete stability under load.
This is a purpose-built tournament-style multiplier reel engineered for long-range surfcasting performance in NZ conditions.
🚀 Engineered for Long-Distance Casting Performance
- CNC one-piece X-frame reduces distortion under casting load
- Free-floating balanced spool for ultra-low friction rotation
- QUADRO-MAG+ braking system with 13 precision settings
- Optimised for low-diameter mono and distance casting setups
With full magnetic control engaged, the reel delivers stability for heavy bait setups. Backed off, it frees the spool for maximum casting distance potential in open surf environments.
🌊 Built for NZ Surfcasting Conditions
The Nitron F-16 is designed to handle the challenges of New Zealand surf fishing, including wind, swell, and long casting distances.
- Open beach surfcasting for snapper and kahawai
- Heavy west coast surf and current conditions
- Long-range bait placement into gutters and channels
⚙️ Precision Engineering & Drive System
- 6.2:1 high-speed retrieve ratio for fast line recovery
- Oversized brass main gear with bronze pinion for torque strength
- ABEC-rated spool bearings for high spool speed efficiency
- 5mm hardened spindle for structural stability under load
This combination delivers both casting performance and the cranking power needed for hard-fighting surf species.
🐟 Smooth Drag for Surf Species Control
- Multi-disc carbon drag system rated up to 15kg
- Smooth pressure curve to reduce line shock under load
- Designed for powerful surf runs and sudden direction changes
🎣 Who This Reel Is Built For
- Experienced surfcasters using overhead or multiplier reels
- Anglers focused on maximum casting distance
- Fishers upgrading from spinning reel setups
- Long-range surfcasting specialists
Not recommended for beginners due to its advanced magnetic control system and tuning requirements.
