Prologic Avenger BF Spinning Reel 5000 — Smooth Power for Hard-Fighting Fish

The Prologic Avenger BF (Bite & Fight) size 5000 is a feature-packed free spool spinning reel built for anglers who demand reliable performance on carp, barbel, and other powerful species. A matt black graphite body pairs serious function with understated style.

Bite & Fight Function with Fixed Gear Construction

The Avenger BF's signature Bite & Fight free spool system lets a taking fish pull line freely before you engage the main drag — no missed runs. Underpinning this is a fixed gear construction that keeps the drive gear anchored firmly to the body, reducing flex under load and delivering consistent, direct power transfer even when a big fish makes a hard run.

Smooth, Twist-Free Retrieve

Six bearings in total — five precision steel ball bearings plus one roller bearing — produce a noticeably effortless retrieve. The line roller is engineered to minimise line twist with both fine monofilament and braid, which matters on long sessions where accumulated twist would otherwise degrade presentation. Prologic's own DuraGrease lubricant keeps the internals running smoothly session after session. The one-touch folding handle features a classic wooden knob for a comfortable, secure grip. A spare graphite spool is included in the box.

Choose the Right Variant

The Avenger BF range spans sizes 3000 to 6000 and is available in two handle configurations — the classic wooden-knob one-touch handle and the SST (machine-cut aluminium) handle. Choose the size that matches your target species, line setup, and rod.
