Our Offshore Angler™ SeaFire Conventional Saltwater Reel draws strength from its 1-piece, CNC-machined aluminum frame. Its smooth and precise feel is the product of 4 sealed stainless steel ball bearings that are engineered to perform in a harsh saltwater environment. Additional features include: an anodized-aluminum Power Handle with oversized knob for sure cranking power; corrosion-resistant brass main gear and stainless steel pinion for grinding in brutes; a powerful star drag system; a double-anodized, machined-aluminum spool with line capacity rings; and an audible bait clicker. The SeaFire is ideal when bottom fishing for snapper or grouper. It's also great when trolling for tuna, dolphin, and kingfish.

''We started using Seafire reels 8 months ago, during our Cobia, kingfish and dolphin season. We have now caught from sailfish to snappers and everything in between with the Seafire. These reels have performed for two to three trips a day for the past 8 months and have not required service. Extremely happy with their durability!''

Solid reels2 yrs ago I purchased 2 of the SF/ 6/0 reels paired with Bill Fisher 30-80 6ft rods. Use mainly offshore bottom fishing off of NC coast. Does a really good job. Gets everything up except when line or tackle break. Very solid reels.

Seafire 9/0Appears to be a good reel, I plan to use this 9/0 for planers and trolling leads..
If the 44 pound max drag is correct it should do fine.
It came with front reel braces but doesn't have the forward lugs.to attach them.

Excellent quality reelI bought this reel when it first came out and I so far has been an excellent reel. If used it for tarpon and shark fishing and if had no problems. Another great thing is that it has more drag than the penn senators.

Pros and consBought it for bonita and dorado when i go to mexico. Works fine trolling but not for any kind of casting. The 40lb mono gets caught in the side of the spool and literally goes into the reel. There is too much space between spool and side. I tighten the drag to minimize the gap but still line went in when i tried to cast. So i stoped using it since it mest up every time. Is it a defect or thats how they are? Ill never know.

Great reelI love my 6/0, but I have to say at full or even half spool it does not do 44 pounds of drag. I had mine spooled up with 1000 yards of 65 pound braid and 200 yard top shot of 80pound mono. I hooked a large shark off the beach and despite locking down the drag could not turn it. The reel put out maybe 25-30 pounds of drag. On low spool it started to put out more drag but even a jig master does 40 pounds at empty spool. overall though it feels as though it has a very solid construction and has landed several large rays and sharks.

Well Constructed ReelPurchased this reel for halibut fishing around Homer, Alaska. The reel works really great, landed a 92 lb halibut the 2nd day out. The SF4/0 reel is by far, worth the money. Purchased a second one.

Bait clicker fell off right awayI pulled the reel out of the box and within 10 turns of the reel the bait clicker fell off it's post on the inside of the reel. I took it apart and snapped it back on. Put the reel back together..... ten more turns and it fell off again. I simply wasn't attached to anything other than a friction fit that was very loose. Instead of wasting my time sending it back I permanently fixed it myself so that I know it will work for me. This process wasted about an hour of my evening..... I haven't even mounted this rig on a rod yet.
Overall the construction is very nice and seems very solid.
Want to use this for surf fishing down in the Texas Coast. How is the casting with this reel.

What about using these reels for Alaska halibut
Asked by: Goat Hunter
Hi, you will want to match rods, reels and line to the kind of terminal gear you’ll be fishing. Any reel used for saltwater fishing should be tough and made to withstand the corrosive abuse dished out by constant exposure to the marine environment, but two specific variables are especially important in a reel that’s going to be used in deep water for large, strong fish: line capacity and gear ratio. Use a rod and reel setup capable of handling fish over 100 pounds.
Lever drag reels are excellent for halibut fishing, because they offer convenient fine drag adjustment in the process of fighting your fish.
You’ll want to choose a reel with a large handle and the highest gear ratio possible. The fewer revolutions you have to turn the reel to get the fish up from the bottom the better. Halibut fishing is a marathon and can be downright brutal work, so do everything in your power to make it as easy as possible.
Yes, the Offshore Angler SeaFire Conventional Saltwater Reel sounds like a good option for Halibut fishing in Alaska.
Thank you

ARE THE DRAG WASHERS LEATHER OR CARBON FIBER??
Asked by: JEEPOHOLIC
Can the crank handle be moved to the end hole for more cranking power?
Asked by: JetCraft
Does the 9/0 model come with any other way to attach it to the rod than the reel seat? I know reels of that size usually come with some clamp or fastener to help attach it to the rod. I imagine with heavy drag the reel would flex.

Anyone try this as a kite fishing reel? Just getting started and don't want to spend a ton on another International. Kite / Rod says I need 35lbs of drag. Thoughts?

What's the best lb line for this reel? I like to shark fish my self, and do you think braided line is better
Asked by: Wezal
for shark 40-100lb mono and 40-200lb braid it can hold but for the 4/0 i suggest 30-50lb mono and 40-80lb 6/0 50-80lb mono and 65-100lb braid finally for 9/0 50-100lb mono and 80-150lb braid for this reel use mono it presents more drag and it holds way to much braid for anybody who doesn't think $200 isn't a lot of money
