ST. LOUIS, Missouri -- U.S. Reel announced today that well-known fishing champion OT Fears, III has joined the U.S. Reel Team. "The momentum is continuing to build!" declared Founder and President of U.S. Reel, Fred Kemp.

   "We are developing products that are revolutionary and now world-class anglers are lining up to be a part of the U.S. Reel SuperCaster movement", explains Fred Kemp. OT added, "The extreme distance that I can cast with my U.S. Reels give me a definite advantage with my competitive fishing."

   All SuperCaster casting reels use the exclusive ABLe (short for Angled Bar Levelwind) system that guides the line onto the spool. The ABLe levelwind is also often called a "See-Saw Levelwind" because as the levelwind turns, the bar teeters and the line is forced to go back and forth onto the spool with a see-saw like action. The line flows much more freely off the spool and does not have to traverse and funnel down through an eyelet.

   Benefits of this revolutionary levelwind include longer casts, less effort to cast, fewer backlashes and easier casting into the wind. "No reel that I have ever used casts like these", exclaimed OT.

   U.S. Reel innovation also developed the world's only lightweight W-I-D-E spool spinning reels. These award and casting competition winning reels give every angler longer casts, less line twist, lower line memory, better versatility, and extremely smooth drag systems.

   OT Fears, III is the winner of the All-American Championship, a four-time qualified to the B.A.S.S. Masters Classic, U.S. Bass Grand National Champion and holds many more titles including a fourth-place finish in the B.A.S.S. Masters Classic.
