Round Baitcasting Reels for Wholesale & Private Label Brands
WH Fishing supplies round baitcasting reels to fishing tackle brands, importers, and wholesale distributors seeking customizable fishing reel products.
The 6500 and 7000 sizes offer two line-capacity options within the same reel series, allowing buyers to develop different product specifications for their target markets.
These reels combine traditional round-frame construction with synchronized line guidance, a mechanical bait clicker, and a dual-component anti-reverse system.
OEM customization options include reel colors, brand logos, handle configurations, and retail packaging, helping buyers develop branded fishing reel collections based on existing designs.
Key Features
Synchronized Level Wind for Consistent Line Management
The synchronized level wind system coordinates line guide movement with spool rotation during line release and retrieval.
This helps maintain a consistent line path through the guide and reduces sharp line angles during controlled line payout.
The system is particularly useful for stationary bait fishing and other applications where anglers need controlled line handling.
Carbon Fiber Drag Washers
Both reel sizes use carbon fiber drag washers designed to provide friction during drag operation.
The adjustable drag system allows anglers to manage line tension when fighting fish, while the carbon fiber washers provide a durable friction material within the drag assembly.
One-Way Bearing with Backup Ratchet
The anti-reverse mechanism combines a one-way bearing with a backup ratchet.
The one-way bearing controls reverse handle movement during normal operation, while the backup ratchet provides an additional mechanical anti-reverse component.
This configuration offers a different mechanical arrangement from reels relying solely on a one-way bearing.
Mechanical Bait Clicker and Stainless Steel Line Guide
A left-side mechanical bait clicker provides an audible indication of spool movement during line release.
Anglers can use this function when fishing with bait and monitoring line movement.
The stainless steel line guide provides a durable contact surface for the fishing line during retrieval and payout.
