The 2026 Maxel Armory 65M Level Wind Reel is a compact heavy-duty game fishing reel designed for anglers targeting powerful offshore species with heavy line and serious drag pressure.

Built around Maxel’s new MOOS WIDEBODY – Maxel Offset Offcenter Structure, the Armory 65M is engineered to reduce friction when fishing heavy leaders up to 150lb, helping maintain smooth line flow during high-pressure fights.

A reinforced synchronous level wind system uses precision gearing and heavy-duty line guides to distribute line evenly across the spool while maintaining the strength required for demanding game fishing applications.

The Karman System improves drag control by helping eliminate spool lock and allowing precise drag adjustment throughout the fight. Combined with Maxel’s Carbon Dual Drag System, the Armory 65M delivers powerful, consistent drag performance even in harsh saltwater conditions.

The carbon drag system features a waterproof treatment designed to maintain smooth operation even when submerged, while TC4 titanium spring washers improve heat resistance and help maintain consistent drag pressure during extended fights.

With 26kg of maximum drag, PE6 capacity of 400m and a powerful 4.5:1 gear ratio, the Maxel Armory 65M is built for heavy offshore fishing where strength, line control and reliability are essential.
