I have been using the Fox Stratos 10000 for some time now. It is one of the smaller reels in its class yet it has 16 ball bearings that make it incredibly smooth. Its a free spool reel and of course has the patented multi-disk front drag system. The large spool is designed to aid with distance casting and has a range casting clip to help with accuracy. The reel was designed for the Carp Angler and is perfect for the job.
Although when i first used the reel it took some time to adjust to its weight i can now say that it has met all challenges well. The best thing about the FS 10000 is the way it lays line across the large spool which enables distance casting effortlessly. The front drag system is easy to adjust and very precise which really helps when you have got a real lump screaming across the lake! You can now pick up a new FS 10000 for around £90 which is great value for money. The Fox brand is known for its quality products and after sales service and after using two of these reels for over a year i have no complaints. Like the front drag the Free spool mechanism is easy to adjust. I have total confidence in these reels when playing big fish and confidence in your tackle is a must if you are to be a successful angler. The large Carp in the UK see an enormous amount of pressure on some waters and anything that gives you an edge is a must The FS10000 does that. All in all its a lovely bit of kit and i give it 9/10.
