The new big-pit reel from Wychwood offers an instant spod or marker reel straight out of the box that won’t break the bank.

The Dispatch 7500 has an understated design with a classy matt-black finish and certainly won’t look out of place on the bank.

It boasts an incredibly large spool that is supplied loaded with 200 metres of 30lb braid, so it’s ready to be used from the word go. Now that’s value for money.

With such a large spool there has to be some suitably powerful cranking power and with more than one metre of line retrieval per handle turn, Wychwood has achieved a great balance.
A superb feature is that the bail arm locks into place when open, eradicating the problem of it closing on the cast and causing a dreaded crack-off.

It also incorporates a backwind function and a front-drag system, making it suitable for spod and marker setups.

A great deal of thought has definitely gone into this product and as a consequence it is functional and looks the part. This really is an all-round tool that represents great value for money.

RRP: £69.99
