GOAT 150 (Bates Fishing Co)

This isn’t your Daddy’s bait caster. This is a true marvel of ingenuity and craftsmanship. This is the G.O.A.T.

The most popular reel in the Bates Fishing Co lineup, the Bates Fishing Co The Goat 150 Casting Reels begin as a solid block of 6061-T6 bar stock aluminium and are cut using a 9-axis CNC machine that brings them to life with the highest level of precision. Featuring custom-machined gears that deliver effortless long-distance casting, The Goat 150 Casting Reel uses no plastic frames, no poured pieces, no kitschy marketing ploys, or ambiguous technological advancements. In other words, there’s no bull, just Bates!

Equipped with the finest combination of internal components to provide smooth casts and reliability, this compact 150-size reel is packed with 10+1 stainless-steel bearings and allows for on-the-fly adjustments with an external magnetic braking system. Backed by a stainless-steel and titanium drag assembly that dishes out up 20lbs of fish-stopping power, each reel is fitted with a 120mm titanium crank arm, laser-engraved cork grips, and a cork thumb bar for a comfortable and secure grip. Including a custom neoprene reel case for added protection, the Bates Fishing Co The Goat 150 Casting Reels are anodised with a clear anti-corrosive finish that provides exceptional durability and allows you to see everything the GOAT has to offer.
