For more than 3 decades the Everol Special Series 18/0 fishing reel held the world record as the largest production reel on the planet. Not anymore! In March 2014, Everol released the Special Series 20/0 which has an unmatched line capacity of 5,300 yards of 100 pound test monofilament or 14,000 yards of 130 pound braided line. This beast can apply over 180 pounds of drag on a fish.

This Everol is perfect for big money tournaments. When targeting black marlin or blue fin tuna, getting ‘spooled’ could cost someone upwards of $1,000,000 in lost prize money and Calcutta side bets. The goliath Special Series 20/0 is the latest rage with the land-based shark fishing community which has exploded in U.S. popularity.

The stock 20/0 reel comes standard with gold anodizing. As an experiment, the factory in Italy produced a few of these historic fishing reels in Black, Blue, Silver, Red, Green, and Violet. In less than one week, Everol sold out of every reel in every color. There is currently a 4 to 6 week backlog on the 20/0 reel.
