Swordrill Electric Reels

Shop electric fishing reels online at Smart Marine, from Shimano, Daiwa and Penn. Electric reels take the hard work out of deep-drop fishing for hapuku, bass and bluenose, winding heavy sinkers and big fish up from hundreds of metres at the push of a button.

Choosing an electric reel. For serious deep-drop fishing, the Shimano Beastmaster and Daiwa Seaborg offer the most power and line capacity, while the Shimano Forcemaster, Daiwa Tanacom and Seapower are proven all-rounders. For lighter deep-water work, the compact Shimano Plays and Daiwa Leobritz are easy to handle. The Penn Fathom wireless electric reels run on their own battery pack, with no cable to the boat. We also stock Swordrill attachments, which let you use a drill to wind in on selected Shimano game reels.

Power your reel with lithium battery packs, power cables and Marinco plugs and sockets, or run it from a deep cycle battery. Spool up with thin, strong braid such as Sufix E-Reel, pair your reel with a heavy overhead boat rod, or save with a ready-to-go electric rod and reel set.
