Choose BST300LP for right-hand retrieve or BST300LP-L for left-hand retrieve, both with a 5.8:1 ratio and 13.6 kg maximum drag. BST300LP-HS-L is left-hand with a 7.5:1 ratio, 89 cm recovery per turn and 11.3 kg maximum drag. It prioritizes faster line pickup at the cost of lower maximum drag.
They are freshwater low-profile baitcasters designed to cast large lures at large predators, including pike and zander. The oversized brass gearing and 95 mm handle support retrieving these lures. Their stated use is freshwater, not a confirmed saltwater application.
No. The Infini Brake System uses magnetic and centrifugal braking for spool control during casting. The Carbon Matrix star drag controls line release during a fight, with an audible Drag Clicker. Adjust casting control separately from the resistance applied to a hooked fish.
No. All three reels are supplied unspooled and without a spare spool. Their aluminum spools hold 220 m of 0.32 mm mono or 285 m of 0.29 mm braid, with further capacities listed for thicker lines. Choose and spool your line before fishing, using the capacity for its diameter.

The Abu Garcia BEAST 300 LP family comprises low-profile baitcasting reels for casting large lures at freshwater predators, including pike and zander. Oversized brass Duragear Gen III gearing provides cranking power, while the Next Gen Power Stack Carbon Matrix Drag System controls resistance during the fight. Choose between right-hand and left-hand retrieve, with a faster left-hand version available.
BST300LP has right-hand retrieve and BST300LP-L has left-hand retrieve. Both use a 5.8:1 gear ratio and have a maximum drag of 13.6 kg. Choose between them according to which hand you use to crank.
BST300LP-HS-L has left-hand retrieve, a 7.5:1 gear ratio and 89 cm of line recovery per handle turn. It takes up line faster than the 5.8:1 versions at the same cranking speed, but its maximum drag is lower at 11.3 kg. Choose it when faster line pickup matters more than the higher maximum drag of the other versions. All three are size 300LP and weigh 315 g.
The Infini Brake System combines magnetic and centrifugal braking to control the spool during a cast. The star-adjusted Carbon Matrix drag controls line release under a fish's pull, with a Drag Clicker providing audible feedback. These are separate systems, so casting brake adjustment is distinct from setting the fighting drag. Instant Anti-Reverse prevents backward handle rotation.
An A-Symmetric body design is paired with an X2-Cräftic™ aluminum frame and handle side plate to support the gearing under load. Seven stainless-steel HPCR™ bearings plus one roller bearing support smooth operation. The 95 mm bowed aluminum handle gives leverage for retrieving large lures, and oversized power knobs provide more grip. The GullWing™ sideplate provides access for adjustments. Each version has an aluminum spool.
All three versions have the same stated monofilament capacities: 220 m of 0.32 mm, 190 m of 0.35 mm or 155 m of 0.38 mm line. Braid capacities are 285 m of 0.29 mm, 215 m of 0.36 mm or 150 m of 0.41 mm line. Compare the capacity for your chosen diameter when planning the setup. The reels are supplied without line or a spare spool, so line must be added before fishing. The specified water type is freshwater.
