Judge this reel by its cover. Ominous matte white and blacked out components give this low-profile reel a menacing look. Blending performance and value, the 13 Fishing Origin C Low-Profile Casting Reel offers advanced technologies and value all-in-one premium package. The upgraded high-spin casting system is fueled by a combination of Japanese high-spin bearings and stainless steel bearings, which provide unparalleled smoothness, provides consistent and exact casts that leave nothing to be desired. Utilizing an aluminum spool and the 13 Fishing Arrowhead line guide system, the Origin C Low-Profile Baitcast Reel is fortified by a lightweight HD aluminum frame and 18 lbs of multi-material drag which means the Origin C won’t stutter when winching your monster fish from the heaviest cover.

Q:

Can this reel be used in saltwater?

Answer: Would not recommend. They make an origin TX which I would highly recommend that has sealed bearings. Both are great reels, but for the salt I’d go w the TX over the C.

Q:

How many ounces is the origin c ?

Answer: 7.4 ounces.

Q:

Peso del carrete

Answer: Weight: 7.3 oz

Q:

I know the reel is white but does it have a clear finish that can be wiped clean when dirty?

Answer: No, reel Does not have a clear finish. It will not be white after your first or second time out. Still a quality reel.

Answer: It can be wiped off -- i'm not sure how much of a clear coat finish you are talking about though

Q:

How many ball bearings??

Answer: Ball Bearings 2+4+1 Japanese High Spin

Q:

Does it Come with the 13 fishing reel box?

Answer: If the item states that it is new and you have checked with the seller... It should

Q:

Where is this made?

Answer: It says made in China on the box.

Q:

Can this reel be used for salt water?

Answer: Yes, but would need to be cleaned after each time it’s used.

Q:

Is it for salt water

Answer: It is not designed for salt water, but can be used. If used for salt water fishing be sure to clean the reel well when done. If you’re looking for a salt water designed reel go with the Origin TX or the Concept Z.

Q:

Would this reel be optimal for fishing vegetation with hollow body frogs?

Answer: Yes, this reel would work well.

Answer: I have used this on both fresh and saltwater. Fishing fresh water I used plastic worms and top water lures with no issues. Right now it mostly used for bay fishing and it works great. GC.

Answer: It would be a good option

Answer: I think the faster gear ratio would for sure.

Q:

What kind of braking system?

Answer: It is a centrifugal braking system. It is honestly fantastic and one of the best I’ve used. Easy to adjust on the fly for changing lures. If you are new to baitcasters I’d highly recommend. I’m not sponsored by these guys, but I own 5 of their baitcasters and everyone has been solid.

Answer: Centrifugal braking that is internally adjusted. Not the best in the world, but good enough for a reel in this price range. These reels will be super loose out of the package, but will need to be cleaned and oiled after a little use.

Answer: Centrifugal. Excellent real. Hard to keep clean, but outstanding performance.

Answer: Internally, it's some type of synthetic disc system. Very similar to the ones found on reels by Shimano, Lew's, BPS, etc.

Q:

Were can I get a replacement side plate? mine fell of in the water because its bad made to stay on?

Answer: I don't know if parts are available thru here... but you can go the their website and find parts there. good luck.

Amazon Customer : I’m going to buy a second one

I was shopping for affordable reels on a budget and saw multiple reviews of this reel, including one on Tactical Bassin’, which I find pretty reputable. It gets better casting distance than most reels in it’s price range and the braking system is pretty top notch.

Amazon Customer : Great quality, smooth drag, superior build, powerful, smooth.

This reel is great! I usually fish both Daiwa and 13 and can't say enough about the quality of 13 reels. I own both this reel and a Concept A. I know a lot of people look into Kastking when trying to stay in a budgeted mindset, but Kastking quality falls short when compared to this reel brand. I've tackled both 7+ lb largemouth bass (the one shown in the job boat weighed in at 7lb 13 ounces) and snook over 40 inches. The drag is smooth, the power is incredible, and casting is as good (if not better) then my Daiwas. These reels are worth trying.

Edward S. : Great reel

Great reel cast great and reels in very smoother

Guillermo Castillo : Quality

you can not get a better product for the price. This meets and exceeds any expectations.
This is a must get reel.

Kindle Customer : It easily cast farther than my $200 Revo and the drag ...

I bought the 8.1 gear ratio origin c for my new frogging reel. It easily cast farther than my $200 Revo and the drag hasn't slipped since I bought it. This is my new favorite reel and I will probably order another one soon.

Jeffrey R. Minchew : Excellent Reel!

This was my first 13 Fishing product. I paired with a 7.1' Medium 13 fishing Fate Chrome rod. This reel casts like a dream. Exceptionaly Smooth. I've had no serious back lashes. This is only my 2nd baitcaster, coming from a KastKing Royal Legend, this is a MAJOR upgrade! I've pulled in several fish on this reel, including a 5.35 pound bass. The only draw back of this reel is the white color. It does get dirty easily. The reel is gorgeous and functional. The knobs have a great texture and grip easily even when your hands are wet.

I would recommend this to anyone, from beginner to fishing freak, who wants to try Fishing 13 products without dropping $120-175 on a reel. I like the reel so much, I just ordered the Origin A to try out!

aldeureaux : A Good, Solid Reel

I own two of these reels and are very happy with them. They are solid performers at this price point. I think anyone would be pleased with this purchase. Just take the time to learn to use the reel properly.

Alan Main : Good performance so far

I put this reel on my profishency MH rod to use as a frog setup. I went with the 8.1:1 gear ratio. It looks great and it launches my frog lures into orbit. Only downside is it boat rashes pretty easy. But form and function are spot on. As good as any other reel I have.
