The lineup on one page
On 30 October 2026, Piscifun's casting reel collection listed eight reels. [1] The table gives each listing's reel price on that date, the gear ratios offered as variants, and what the product description says about brakes, drag and bearings. Prices are listed prices, not checkout quotes; most were shown against a higher struck price, which we ignore. We have not tested any of these reels.
Not stated means the product description we read did not give the figure. None of the eight descriptions gave a line capacity, and only the Torrent Lite gave a weight, so check the product images or ask Piscifun before buying for a specific line.

Which series fits which technique
This mapping is our reading of Piscifun's descriptions and stated lure ranges, not a performance ranking. The gear ratio and brake guidance comes from our general guides, which explain how gear ratio changes retrieve speed; Piscifun's own AlinoX 300 listing describes 6.6:1 for heavier lures or slower presentations and 8.1:1 for faster retrieves. [1]
| Technique or species | Start with | Why, from the listing | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light bass lures, first baitcaster on a budget | Torrent Lite | Lowest price, stated 5.5 oz weight [1] | No brake type or ratio in the description |
| Crankbaits and spinnerbaits | Alloy M 7.5:1 or AlinoX 300 6.6:1 | Magnetic brakes; AlinoX 300 describes 6.6:1 for heavier lures and slower presentations [1] | Alloy M 8.4:1 variants showed as unavailable on 30 Oct 2026 |
| Jigs, Texas rigs, heavy cover | AlinoX 300 8.1:1 | Up to 33 lb drag; 8.1:1 for fast retrieves [1] | Weight and line capacity not stated |
| Catfish and bait fishing | Chaos XS or Chaos Pro | Both have level wind and are described for catfish; Chaos Pro adds a bait clicker [1] | Chaos Pro ratio not stated |
| Musky, big swimbaits, inshore large baits | AlinoX 400 | 38 lb drag, 2 to 8 oz optimal lure range [1] | Large reel; not for light lures |
| Trolling to a depth | AlinoX 400 LC | Mechanical line counter, 5.5:1 [1] | Most expensive in the lineup |
| Saltwater use | AlinoX 300, Alloy M, AlinoX 400 | Each described for saltwater use or exposure [1] | Warranty excludes improper maintenance; rinse after use [2] |
Three gaps to know about
No bait-finesse model. None of the eight Piscifun casting descriptions we read mentions a bait-finesse spool, and the lightest stated lure range in the lineup starts at 1/2 oz on the AlinoX 300. [1] If you want to throw very light lures on a baitcaster, compare dedicated finesse models from other brands; our KastKing lineup guide covers that brand's options.
Patchy specifications. The Torrent Lite gives a weight but no brake or ratio; the Chaos Pro gives a drag and a brake type but no ratio; no listing gives line capacity in its description. [1] That is a reason to ask before buying, not a judgement on the reels.
Availability. On 30 October 2026 both Alloy M2 variants showed as unavailable, as did both 8.4:1 Alloy M variants and several AlinoX 300 and AlinoX 400 color and handle combinations. [1] Check the exact variant before planning around it.
Budget bands
Under $50, the Torrent Lite is Piscifun's only casting reel. Between $50 and $80 you have the Chaos XS round reel and the Alloy M. Between $80 and $110 sit the Alloy M2, Chaos Pro and AlinoX 300. Above that, the AlinoX 400 and its line-counter version are specialist reels for big baits and trolling. [1]
All of them carry the same published one-year limited warranty, and the store offers free US shipping from $48.99, so every reel except the Torrent Lite clears the threshold on its own. [2] [3]
| Budget | Piscifun options | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50 | Torrent Lite | Light all-round bass use; confirm brake and ratio first |
| $50 to $80 | Chaos XS, Alloy M | Bait and catfish (Chaos XS); general bass (Alloy M) |
| $80 to $110 | Alloy M2, Chaos Pro, AlinoX 300 | Heavier bass techniques (AlinoX 300); catfish (Chaos Pro) |
| $110 and up | AlinoX 400, AlinoX 400 LC | Big baits, musky, inshore; trolling with a counter |
Checklist before ordering a Piscifun baitcaster
- Pick the hand first: left- and right-hand variants are listed separately and sometimes priced differently (Alloy M left hand is $7 more). [1]
- Confirm the gear ratio in the variant selector; the AlinoX 300 offers three. [1]
- Check that the exact color, ratio and hand combination shows as available. [1]
- Ask Piscifun for line capacity if you need a specific amount of a specific line; the descriptions do not state it. [1]
- Keep the order confirmation for the one-year warranty. [2]
- Read our brake-systems guide if you are choosing between magnetic and centrifugal brakes.
