Akios Sea Trek Reel Case

At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that a high-performance reel is a significant investment. Whether it’s an Akios S-Line “leftie” or a powerful Krave KX8, the last thing you want is for your pride and joy to be bouncing around in a rucksack, getting scratched by leads or corroded by salt spray. The Akios Sea Trek Reel Case is the ultimate insurance policy for your gear, providing a rugged, padded sanctuary that’s as tough as the environment you fish in.

Crafted from the signature Sea Trek heavy-duty tarpaulin, these cases are 100% water-repellent and incredibly easy to wipe clean. Unlike traditional fabric cases that absorb salt and moisture—effectively “seasoning” your reel in a damp environment—the Sea Trek material keeps the elements out. With a soft internal lining and a shock-absorbing padded core, these cases ensure your reel arrives at the mark in the same precision-tuned condition it left the house.

Dual-Size Versatility & Protection

We offer the Sea Trek Reel Case in two sizes to cover everything from compact multipliers to massive big-pit fixed spools. The waterproof zippers are a standout feature, featuring oversized pulls that are easy to operate with cold, wet fingers. Because they are compact and stackable, they turn a chaotic tackle bag into an organized, professional-looking kit.

Examples of Where to Use

• The Shore Commute: Protect your reels from the “clatter” of tripods and leads during the hike to your favorite beach or rock mark.

• Boat Angling: The tarpaulin exterior is perfect for boat shelves where spray and wash are constant. Your reel stays dry until it’s time to fish.

• Out-of-Season Storage: Keep your reels dust-free and protected in the shed or garage during the winter months.

• Travel & Transport: If you’re heading abroad for a fishing trip, these padded cases offer the extra layer of security needed when packing gear into suitcases.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“Here is a secret from the Gerry’s team: never put a ‘salt-wet’ reel directly into a sealed case for long-term storage. After your session, give your reel a quick fresh-water wipe and let it air dry before zipping it into the Sea Trek case. Because the case is so good at keeping moisture out, it can also trap it in! Also, the Standard size is the perfect fit for the Akios 656 and 651 series, while the Large is the one you want for the Krave KX8 or any 8000/10000 size fixed spool.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Which size do I need for a 6500-sized multiplier?

The Standard case (20cm x 20cm x 10cm) is the perfect home for 6500-sized reels like the Akios S-Line. It holds the reel securely without allowing it to slide around, with enough room to keep the handle attached.

Are these cases stackable?

Yes. The boxy, reinforced design and the flat tarpaulin surfaces make them ideal for stacking inside a larger carryall or seat box. It’s a great way to maximize your vertical storage space.

Will the waterproof zips seize up in the salt?

Akios uses heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant zippers on the Sea Trek range. However, we always recommend a quick spray of silicone lubricant or a wipe with fresh water once in a while to ensure they stay “silky smooth” for the life of the product.

Can I fit a spare spool in the case as well?

In the Large version, there is typically enough room to fit a large fixed spool reel plus a spare spool tucked into the corner, provided they are separated by a small cloth to prevent metal-on-metal contact.
