Purpose built for close quarters fishing scenarios, the Team Lew’s Pro SP Baitcasting Reels have innovative features that will help you take your skipping and pitching techniques to the next level. The Pro SP is the brainchild of professional angler Andy Montgomery and the engineering team at Lew’s. The super shallow spool allows for faster spool start up and greater control, while still holding enough line to skip, pitch, and flip effectively. The externally adjustable QuietCast ACB braking system includes a special “Skipping Zone” to maximize distance and reduce backlash when skipping baits under docks or low hanging structure. A speedy 8.3:1 gear ratio is perfect for both getting baits in and out of the strike zone quickly to maximize efficiency and hastily winching big bass away from heavy cover. These features plus a slew of proprietary Lew’s technologies make the Pro SP an absolute winner in the category of technique specific baitcasting reels.
