REEL CARP EXPERT METHOD INDICATOR 550

The Carp Expert team is constantly working on innovations that make anglers’ lives easier. While we previously offered a reel with a built-in bite alarm, we’ve now taken that concept to the next level.

Introducing the Carp Expert Method Indicator 5500 reel, which features a truly unique iBite drag knob. When activated, in addition to the regular drag sound, the reel emits a clearly audible beep whenever a fish pulls line from the spool. You can choose from 6 different volume levels depending on how far you are from your rods — or how deeply you plan to sleep. The iBite knob charges via a USB-C port, protected by a rubber cover to prevent water ingress.

We’ve also thought about situations where this extra alert isn't necessary. That’s why the reel comes with a traditional drag knob included in the box, which can be swapped in easily once the iBite knob is removed.

In terms of specifications, the reel features a graphite body, metal spool, 7+1 precisely placed ball bearings, and a gear ratio of 4.7:1. Its design is sleek and eye-catching, and thanks to its innovative features, it performs flawlessly in any situation!

For gigantic hard fighting specimens you want a faultless fishing reel. This reel has a reliable drag system, which delivers extreme smoothness. We suggest setting the front drag before fishing. You should always take into consideration the stiffness of your rod and the breaking strain of your line and hooklength.
