Piscifun Carbon X II Ultralight Spinning Reel, All-Carbon Fiber Build
Piscifun Carbon X II Ultralight Spinning Reel, All-Carbon Fiber Build
Details
Pick this reel up and the first thing you notice is what's missing: the usual heft of a spinning reel. Piscifun built the Carbon X II body, rotor, and side plate entirely from carbon fiber, so the 1000 size comes in at just 7.2 oz in your hand — a genuine step down in weight and up in smoothness from the original Carbon X, without giving up the muscle you need when a big fish decides to run.
What makes it work
- All-carbon-fiber build — body, rotor, and side plate shed weight without sacrificing rigidity, keeping the 1000 size down to 7.2 oz for a rod setup that stays balanced all day.
- Up to 22 lbs of drag — a reinforced stainless steel main shaft pairs with an upgraded Carbon Fiber Resistance System that lifts drag performance by 15%, so line pays out evenly under real pressure.
- CNC-machined aluminum handle — a direct-drive, screw-in design with an EVA grip that stays comfortable through long sessions and hard fights.
Two gear ratios to match how you fish
The Carbon X II line splits into a fast 6.2:1 retrieve for muscling in strong, fast runs and a smoother 5.2:1 for finesse presentations — pick the ratio that suits your technique. Inside, 10+1 double-sealed, imported stainless steel bearings keep every turn of the handle silky, a spec you'd normally expect on reels well above this price. One honest note: the 1000 size ships without an anti-reverse switch, so factor that in if you rely on that feature.

Frequently asked questions
Does every size have an anti-reverse switch?
No — the 1000 size doesn't include one. The 2000 and 3000 sizes do.
Which gear ratio should I pick?
Go with 6.2:1 if you want a fast retrieve for powering through strong runs, or 5.2:1 for a smoother, more finesse-friendly feel.
What's the drag made from?
A carbon fiber drag system built around a reinforced stainless steel main shaft, rated up to 22 lbs and tuned for a 15% improvement in drag performance over the previous generation.
