Modern technology and traditional dependability are the hallmarks of the all new abumatic family. We've upgraded drag on the 170 to our ultra- smooth carbon Matrix drag system. An aluminum die cast front Cone and machined body are engineered to withstand the test of time. The addition of an oscillating far-cast spool creates an easy-to-use, no-twist line system that comes pre-spooled with 12 lb. Berkley Trilene XL monofilament line.
