TICA - DOLPHIN SURF 6000/10000 GRAPHITE BODY SPINNING REEL (STX SERIES)

TICA - DOLPHIN SURF 6000/10000 GRAPHITE BODY SPINNING REEL (STX SERIES)

Tica Dolphin STX Series is a graphite body. This shore-oriented reel is intended for surf, beach, pier or long-cast work where orderly line lay, repeatable casting and controlled recovery are important. Match the exact model to the surf rod, casting load and required line capacity, and build the rig so the cast is carried by the rod and leader rather than by excessive effort at the reel. The live range contains 2 configurations, and each selection should be checked against its displayed model label and SKU before ordering.

Key Features

• The live selector lists 2 configurations.
• Available model labels: 10000 / 4.1:1, 6000 / 4.1:1.
• Live retrieve ratio: 4.1:1.
• Graphite body construction is stated in the live product title.
• Bearing count is omitted because it is not stated in the current live title or selector.
• 2 distinct SKUs identify the available configurations.
• The live title identifies this series for surf or long-cast use.

How To Use It

• Spool preparation — Load line under steady tension, keep the lay even and finish below the spool lip. An overfilled or loosely packed spool is more likely to throw loops during a hard cast.
• Surf casting — Use a leader and knot appropriate to the casting load, keep the drop consistent and accelerate smoothly through the cast. Close the bail by hand before tensioning the line.
• Bait or lure recovery — Point the rod to manage wash and current, recover slack before applying pressure and use the rod butt to fight rather than winding against a locked drag.
• Salt and sand care — Keep the reel off the beach, mist away salt without pressure, dry it fully and inspect the spool lip, bail and roller after every session. Arrange servicing after repeated heavy exposure.

Specifications

Only information present in the live Shopify title or variant selector is treated as a sellable specification. Select the exact model, colour and retrieve configuration before adding to cart.

Recommended Pairing

• Pair with a surf or shore spinning rod whose casting rating covers the complete sinker, bait or lure load.
• Use suitable monofilament or PE main line with an abrasion-resistant leader and, where casting load requires it, a correctly rated shock leader.
• Choose the reel size from actual capacity needs and venue conditions; a larger number alone does not guarantee the right balance or safe casting load.

Before fishing, confirm that the reel seats securely, the spool is filled evenly and the drag operates smoothly. The practical system limit is set by the weakest line, leader, knot, hook or terminal component, not by reel size or bearing count alone.
