Tough yet astonishingly lightweight at just 580g, the Akios UTOPIA

CX8 is a new breed of high-performance long-distance casting reels from

Akios capable of landing specimen-sized fish.

Engineered for maximum casting potential, the UTOPIA CX8\u2019s slow

oscillation delivers truly exceptional line lay across the full length

of the angled lip long cast spool resulting in significantly reduced

line friction and tangibly greater casting distances.

The lightweight design not only offers a more balanced feel on the

rod, more importantly, but it also allows for improved hand speed during

the cast, improving acceleration through the swing and adding yards to

the cast.

Line recovery is swift with 100cm of line retrieved in a single turn
