The 1000 size is ideal for ultralight finesse with the finest lines and smallest lures, perfect for trout and small perch in clear water. The 2000 size accepts slightly heavier lines and larger lures while remaining ultralight, making it more versatile for mixed species.
The 1000 model shines with lines of 0.12–0.16mm monofilament or ultra-fine braids, enabling delicate presentations. The 2000 handles 0.14–0.20mm monofilament or fine braids, offering slightly more capacity without sacrificing light-tackle finesse.
Yes, matching aluminium spare spools are available for both models. They allow you to quickly switch between braided and monofilament lines or different line weights without waiting for respooling.
Low gear ratios slow your retrieve, enabling precise, lifelike presentations of small lures and finesse techniques. They also reduce strain on light rods and are particularly effective in cold water or when fish are selective.
Absolutely. While optimized for trout and small perch, they work well for any light-tackle species including light pike, chub, and grayling, particularly in clear-water scenarios where finesse presentations shine.

The Carabus AG STX spinning reels are purpose-built for ultralight and area game fishing, delivering precision and control for light lures and fine lines. Super-shallow aluminium spools enable ultra-fine braided and monofilament line use without sacrificing casting distance, while low gear ratios support the slow, deliberate retrieves that tough conditions demand.
At just 200g, these reels are among the lightest in their size class, reducing fatigue during extended sessions and pairing perfectly with light rods.
The shallow spool design accepts ultra-fine lines while maintaining excellent casting characteristics for small spoons, spinners, and other light lures. Matching aluminium spare spools allow quick switching between braided and monofilament.
Gear ratios of 5.1:1 to 5.2:1 enable the slow, controlled retrieves that selective fish require, particularly effective in clear water or challenging light conditions.
Reliable drag performance ensures consistent control when fighting fish on light lines, protecting against break-offs.
EVA foam handle knob provides a secure, comfortable grip during long sessions.
