The Accurate® B-870Narrow, Salmon, Halibut, Rockfish, it does it all

With the diversity of fishing in Northern California, and the popularity of spectra lines growing, anglers are looking for a reel that has multiple uses. The Accurate B-870 Narrow is a reel to fit those needs and more. It’s comfortable diameter and narrow spool make it the perfect match for catching whatever is biting on the North Coast. The B-870N is offered in both 4:1 and 6:1 gear ratios with beefy stainless steel gears for durability.
Like all Accurate reels, the B-870 Narrow is made of 6061 T-6 aircraft aluminum which is lightweight, solid and extremely strong. This reel also features Accurate’s patented TwinDrag™ that gives an angler incredible stopping power as well as the smoothest drag on the market. The 7 class five ABEC bearings keeps the spool spinning freely as well as the smooth retrieve of the power handle.
The Accucast cast control system helps prevent excessive backlashes by letting you control the speed of the spool as you cast a bait or drop a jig to the bottom. It also works perfectly for slow trolling bigger baits that the reel clicker can’t hold letting you still be in free spool when getting bit. The B-870 Narrow line capacity is 250 yards of 30lb mono or 400 yards of 50lb braid.
If jigging is your specialty, the B-870XNC (6:1) coupled with the new Accurate Xnergy ACCJ25066C or ACCJ40058C rods matched with 50 lb braid give you a powerful lightweight outfit perfect for the shallow water rockfish.
For the guys looking to target halibut on the drift the B-870N and the new Xnergy ACCB7030C is a great setup for the angler looking for a powerful rod and reel combo that works with braid or mono.
And for the Salmon angler looking for the killer mooching combo the B-870XNC and an Accurate Xnergy ACCB7020C rod, which gives you plenty of, tip but shuts down fast with the backbone to finish the job. The rods mentioned above all feature a “Floating Fulcrum” which means the harder you pull on the fish the less pressure on you and more on the fish.
