Cardinal 56 FD
incl. VAT, excl.
The Cardinal 56 FD delivers proven Abu Garcia quality at an accessible price, engineered for anglers targeting larger predators with heavier lines and plenty of line capacity.
The 4.4:1 gear ratio recovers 70 cm of line per crank, giving you the power and torque needed to land bigger pike, zander, and other predators without losing control. Three bearings (2 ball bearings + 1 roller bearing) ensure reliable, smooth operation season after season.
A machined aluminum spool holds 190 m of 0.35 mm mono or braid, while the 7.2 kg maximum drag and lightweight graphite body provide the strength you need without excess weight (388 g). Slow oscillation technology lays line evenly, reducing tangles and improving casting distance with all line types.
