Black Cat Catextreme 65 — Built for Power and Precision

The Black Cat Catextreme 65 is the workhorse fixed-spool reel designed specifically for catfish anglers who demand unbreakable reliability. Engineered for active techniques like spinning and vertical fishing, it delivers smooth power transfer and effortless retrieval even under extreme loads.

Unbreakable Construction for Monster Fish

The Catextreme 65 features an aluminium housing and rotor that remain completely distortion-free, even when fighting Europe's largest freshwater predator. The indestructible axle and robust power gears handle the most brutal battles, while the power handle ensures maximum leverage when you need it most. Every component is built to withstand the punishment of serious catfish angling.

Offshore-Class Drag System

With an extra-large multi-disc Offshore drag system, the Catextreme 65 provides up to 14 kg (30 lbs) of stopping power with silky-smooth control. The S-curve line distribution ensures even line lay for consistent casting and retrieval, while high-quality Hot Sauce oil keeps the mechanism running flawlessly. Optimised for braided lines, this reel guarantees harmonious performance even when retrieving heavy baits.
