Description

The Scorpion DC is designed for a wide range of fishing styles, featuring a low-inertia MGL spool that offers smooth startup and efficient casting. The deeper spool provides ample line capacity, giving flexibility to adjust for different target species and techniques. Equipped with Micromodule Gear, it delivers a refined cranking feel with reduced gear noise. The I-DC5 brake system allows fine-tuned adjustments to braking force to match various lure weights and conditions. With three available gear ratios — from standard to extra-high — this reel is suitable for techniques ranging from bass fishing to certain inshore applications.

    More torque, easier to handle resistance, good bottom contact
    Beginners or all-purpose anglers

7.4:1 (High Speed)

  • Texas rigs, topwater, soft plastics, jerkbaits
    Fast line pickup, better reaction control, efficient casting
    Intermediate/advanced anglers with a faster pace

8.5:1 (Extra High Speed)

  • Pitching/flipping, jigs, cover fishing
    Super fast retrieve for quick hooksets and repositioning

If You’re Buying Multiple Reels
  • 1 reel: Go with 7.4:1 for all-around performance.
  • 2 reels: Get a 6.2:1 and an 8.5:1 to cover slow and fast techniques.
  • 3 reels or more: Consider owning all three ratios to fully optimize for technique-specific fishing.
