Take it to the Next Level with the Fierce IV Live Liner

Live Liner reels feature a two level drag system which allows you to set a dead or live bait in the water so a predatory fish can grab it and run without feeling resistance. Once your target fish has swallowed the bait, a quick turn of the handle will engage your fighting drag to set the hook.

Fierce IV reels combine with a rod that's built on a super durable Graphite Core Construction (GCC) tubular glass blank, featuring a solid glass tip, comfortable EVA grips and stylish red cosmetics.
