Beast™ Redefines Big Bait Power

Beast Innovation

Bringing a new product to market is easy, making it stand out from the rest is where the real challenge comes in and where Beast shines. Within this series, we've ensured an updated body design that will change the game.

  • Power Stack Carbon Matrix Drag System: This updated drag system provides up to 30+lbs of drag pressure while improving start up inertia and remaining smooth through the entire drag range.  

  • Duragear III: The Beast™ series features up to a 21% increase in gear size for improved gear life, increased cranking power and greater gear efficiency.  

  • A-Symmetrical Body Design: The new body design allows Abu Garcia to leverage a larger gear system and increase the size of the gear side, while reducing the palming size for maximum comfort and longer days on the water.  

  • Optimized for Big Baits: With the addition of durability and upgraded performance, the new Beast™ Reels were designed to better handle big baits and control bigger fish.  

"Chasing big fish with big baits requires serious equipment. The new Beast rods and reels are next level performance and reliability.”
