Anyone who says this hasn’t experienced the Liquid Max, a bully and a beast of a reel. Liquid Max features the Cobalt drag system: a fully U.S.-made, stop-anything drag system with proprietary Teflon alloy drag cone, Carbon Peek thrust washers, custom self-lubricating seals and a certified IPX8 waterproof rating. They’ve housed this drag in a pressure cast and machined frame and spool, with features that include ultra-large arbour, integrated reel foot and pocket spar frame and spool design that maximizes strength-to-weight ratio. Top it off with a large, easy grip drag knob you have a reel that will change your mind about bullies.
