The KOBO reel has transformed my swordfishing experience, turning guesswork into science. It gives me confidence that anyone on the rod, no matter their skill, can set it exactly how I want. Our catch ratio has improved tremendously, thanks to the KOBO’s intuitive display. It's the coolest piece of gear I’ve ever used.
