Pflueger Patriarch XT Casting Reel Review

This low-profile casting reel is strong, lightweight and incredibly easy to cast

I always think it’s interesting to experiment with different fishing reels and manufacturers. Some companies try to make their reels the lightest on the market while others have a reputation for designing pure workhorse reels made to withstand anything imaginable.

To be totally honest here, I wasn’t too familiar with Pflueger’s modus operandi until recently. I had always heard great things about them, but aside from winning a handful of old Pfluegers in tournaments years ago, I’ve never had a chance to fish with them extensively.

After using the Pflueger Patriarch XT Casting Reel for well over a month, I am slowly becoming addicted to it. It’s a unique reel in several ways and I can comfortably say that it performs at a much higher level than many of the more expensive reels I’ve tried over the years.

Here’s what I think you need to know about it.

• It’s light but not too small

• Easy to cast

• Great line capacity

• Strong drag
