Fox Stratos 12000 MAG reels!

After more than three years in development, the hugely anticipated launch of the new Fox Stratos 12000 Magnesium reels has been confirmed for February 2008.

The new reels, the first entry into the big pit reel market for the Essex-based company, were designed from scratch with the sole aim of producing the best big pit reels on the market.

Andy Little, Fox International technical director, said: “We didn’t want to release a good reel, we wanted to release the best. It’s for this reason that the 12000 MAGs have taken so long to develop – you can’t rush perfection.

  • Front clutch Grit Guard to ensure that dirt can t penetrate the internal components
  • Two shims to cater for various line diameters and profile
  • Gear ratio of 4.5:1 for the 12000 model
  • Gear ratio of 4.2:1 for the 12000FS model
  • Knot recess in spool
  • Thicker line groove
  • Twist Free Roller
  • Sure-Grip Soft Touch Fittings

    • The reels are both made with Magnesium Bodies and Rotors to create a lighter and stronger reel, compared to more traditional materials. And unlike many other top-end big pit reels, both models come supplied with a spare spool and Neoprene reel pouch.

    The 12000FS model has a Fox Free Spool facility. The 12000 reel doesn’t.

    The reels carry an RRP of £249.99 for the Stratos 12000 MAG and £349.99 for the Stratos 12000FS MAG.

     Fox Horizon SFD Marker Rod

    The Horizon series has been specifically developed to achieve extreme distance and the construction utilises some of the most advanced materials currently available.

    The action has been pushed forward using a fast taper to generate casting power and each blank features Fox’s unique overfit spigot.

    The blanks are built with a bonded Titanium mesh overwrap which adds amazing strength while providing incredible tip recovery speed. Each rod is then fitted with Fox Tri-Lites which have been designed to be extremely strong but also exceptionally lightweight.

    Gunsmoke stainless steel frames with titanium coloured SiC inserts create a groundbreaking guide that is radical both in looks and performance. Tri-Lites have been engineered in new, non-standard sizes to compliment the Horizon blanks.

    The Horizon series features a totally unique finish with stunning olive green cosmetics that sets them apart from all other rods.

    Fitted with a custom designed moulded line clip, the ultra slim Fox reel seat and an engraved steel butt cap.

     The Quattro 2 is the next generation of rod pod design, utilising a number of new, practical features to make it more user-friendly than ever before. These changes are the result of comments from Fox Team of carp consultants, in-house CAD-engineers and you, the angler on the bank. In our opinion, the Quattro 2 raises the standards of rod pod design further than ever before.
