Akios Rapport RTX8 Fixed Spool Surfcasting Reel

Power. Distance. Control.

The Akios Rapport RTX8 Fixed Spool Reel is built for anglers who demand power and reliable performance from the shore. Designed with long-distance casting and heavy-duty fishing in mind, the RTX8 combines a powerful 18kg fast drag with a long-cast spool and high line recovery.

With a 4.8:1 gear ratio and an impressive 116cm of line recovery per handle turn, the RTX8 quickly picks up line when working a rig or bringing a fish through the surf. The high-strength graphite body and rotor help keep the reel's weight down without compromising strength.

A smooth 6+1 bearing system, instant anti-reverse and machined aluminium handle provide confident, controlled operation. The comfortable power grip gives you plenty of leverage when winding under load.

At just 566g, the Akios Rapport RTX8 offers a strong combination of power, casting performance and manageable weight, making it an excellent choice for surfcasting, beach fishing and demanding shore-based applications.
