Bates Fishing EDC 100 Casting Reels

Everyday Casting Confidence

The Bates EDC 100 Casting Reel is built to be your go-to reel—the one you grab without thinking because you know it’s going to perform. Its cast aluminum frame keeps things light but tough, making it reliable for daily fishing without stretching your budget. What really elevates it, though, is the Digitally Assisted Brake system. This smart braking tech reads spool speed in real time and applies precise electromagnetic resistance to keep your cast controlled, long, and backlash-free. No setup, just automatic adjustments that help you cast smoother from the moment you hit the water until the day is done.
