The Abu Garcia Ike Signature Low Profile Baitcast Fishing Reel is the result of pro angler Mike Iaconelli’s precision design paired with Abu Garcia’s legendary engineering. Engineered for serious fishos, this baitcaster delivers exceptional performance across a wide range of fishing techniques — from targeting barra in the snags to working vibes for big flathead.
Built with a lightweight graphite frame and sideplates, this reel offers strength without the weight. The 8+1 stainless steel bearing system ensures ultra-smooth retrieves, while the Carbon Matrix drag system delivers consistent and powerful drag pressure to handle aggressive species with confidence. The Duragear Gen II gearing enhances efficiency and longevity, ideal for long sessions and tough fights.
With its Infini brake system, you’ll experience precise cast control and minimal backlash, even when throwing lighter lures or adjusting to windy conditions. Ergonomically designed with a compact bent handle and audible drag clicker, the Ike Signature reel gives you the feel and feedback you need to stay in control.
Whether you're casting into structure, working jerkbaits, or cranking deep-divers, the Abu Garcia Ike Baitcaster delivers professional-grade reliability for any Aussie fishing adventure.

Perfect for targeting barramundi, mangrove jack, flathead, bass, and Murray cod — especially when using hardbodies, vibes, or spinnerbaits.
Q: Can beginners use this reel?
Absolutely. With the Infini brake system, beginners can fine-tune casting control to reduce backlash while still enjoying high-end performance.
Q: What rod should I pair it with?
A medium to medium-heavy baitcast rod around 6’6” to 7’ is ideal, depending on your target species and lure selection.
