Korum Neoteric LC 5500 Shallow Spool

Description

The Korum Neoteric LC 5500 Shallow Spool is designed to maximize the casting potential and line management of your Neoteric LC 5500 reel. Engineered specifically for shallow-fill applications, this spool eliminates the need for excessive monofilament backing when loading low-diameter feeder braids, fine monos, or fluorocarbons.Featuring Korums signature LC (Long Cast) taper design, the angled spool lip minimizes friction as line releases during the cast, helping you achieve extra distance with minimal effort. Made from durable anodised aluminium, it comes fitted with an oversized, line-friendly metal line clip that securely locks in your target distance without damaging your mainline.Technical Specifications

Braid lays much flatter on a dedicated shallow spool profile, preventing line from bedding in under tension and ensuring smoother, tangle-free line release on every cast.Ideal Applications & Use Cases

• Braid & Fine Line Setups: Tailored for modern low-diameter braids and light monofilaments without needing hundreds of metres of backing line.

• Rapid Bankside Swaps: Keep pre-spooled with an alternative line setup to switch instantly between braid and mono as swim conditions evolve.
