About the Cadence CS10 3000 Match Fishing Reel
The CS10 series of fixed spool reels is sure to exceed your expectations. The features, quality, and design have been maximised by our engineers to compete equally against competitors’ reels at much higher price points. The lightweight design is a result of using magnesium for the body and carbon composite for the side plate and rotor. These materials also produce reels that are both strong and rigid in function.

Bought a second cs10 reel recently to compliment my new match rod.
What can I say?
As good as any brand double the price tag, light, great line lay in the spools,great gearing, really cheap spare spool price and loads of winding power when needed.
fantastic value for money and pleased to have it join my armoury

Absolute bargain of a reel. I purchased a 3000 and 4000 version to complement a feeder and waggler rod
Light but powerful with a super smooth drag. The drag system is quite quick, meaning it only takes 2 or 3 clicks to go from letting the fish run to being able to give the fish some stick!
I can’t recommend them highly enough

Purchased this for a 12 ft feeder I have, after using the CS7 3000 reel for float work for many months. The drag on the CS10 is perfect both very smooth and controlled. The reel feels very smooth when reeling in both with and without a fish. My reel is loaded with both 4 and 8 lb line. And it sits on the spool perfectly.

Brought two of the CS10 for my 10ft and 11ft feeder rods and over the moon with them.
Nice and light and superb drag
Absolute bargain at that price

I have waited to give my review on the cs10 4000 reel as I wanted to see if it stood the test of time.Ive used this now for nearly two years so can give it the credit it deserved.
Opened the box and was surprised that it came with spare spool.
Stunning looking reel it’s still as tight as day I received it bearings show no sign of wearing or any wobbly handle.
The bail arm still snaps over like a mousetrap.
I have used this on all my float fishing and
Short range feeder work it still feels solid.
Highly recommend and don’t think there is a reel out there for under 100quid that will come anywhere near the quality of the cs10 range.
Extra spare spools are available as is the cs double handle so worth bearing in mind when ordering

The CS10 4000 reels are my favourite reels for river float fishing and I’ve used them extensively for over two years. I like the 4000 size as they are very light and I feel the larger spool allows line to peel off the reel with less resistance than a smaller sized spool. This lack of resistance coupled with an excellent line lay really helps when fishing delicate floats for shy biting fish. I like to play fish mainly with the backwind and use the clutch as extra security when bigger fish like barbel and chub are close to the net. The anti-reverse lever is very easy to locate and the clutch is sensitive, easy to adjust and very reliable. The bail arm flicks over effortlessly for those who like to wind it closed on the strike. Lovely reels at a bargain price!

I have both the 4000 and 3000 CS10 reels and they absolutely sold me on using Cadence reels for the foreseeable future.
The reels truly are excellent value for money, I’ve had absolutely no issues with line lay on the spools and the reels are silky smooth.
The drag has been exceptional when handling larger fish on commercials.
I’ve found that my 3000’s match well when waggler fishing, and as you’d expect the 4000 is more suited to the heavier work with a feeder.
Spare spools always seem to be readily available and I’ve already purchased an additional 3 spools for my 3000 reels.
Will certainly be adding another one or two of these to my armory once they are back in stock, but may even look at a CS8 or CS7 as they are seemingly excellent pieces of kit for comparative prices.
The slick visual design of the reel is pretty nice as well!

Bought the Cs10 4000 reel for my 11ft pellet rod, so I loaded it with 6lb line and went to meadowland fishery where the fish run quite big.
Now the day started slowly on the waggler, but the fish came steadily and the reel performed superbly.
The drag was silky smooth, and never felt like it was going to let me down.
The reel felt very robust and the cranking was effortless.
All in all a excellent reel at a excellent price, well done to cadence.
I will be adding another to my fishing armoury and have already ordered the 5000 feeder reel.

If you are thinking of buying this reel don’t hesitate absolute quality for the price.
Comes complete with two spare spools and the option of a double handle.
The reel itself is very smooth and robust and is well balanced for the Cadence match rod which I’ve bought.

After only one shortish trip I am impressed with the CS10 5000. Not tested the drag system on a big Barbel yet but feel it will deliver. Fishing with 100g feeders and playing nice river bream I felt after a few casts and fish that I felt at ease. I like the braid ‘space saver’ spools. I will check out the extra distance I can get from them when attached to my 14′ Power feeder soon.
A quality reel at a good price.

Been using this reel for a year on both river and commercial never let me down .Teamed up with the 16ft match rod on the river superb hardly missed a bite and no bump offs

Just received my 4000 reel and though I’m yet to use it I can say it looks and feels amazing. Even came with two spare spools and double handle. I can honestly say I’m now a cadence convert .

I’ve three 3000 CS10s and a 4000 CS10, due to the number of spare spools with each, I’m able to interchange from my also purchased wand, feeder and match waggler rods. All are outstanding !
I will not be looking anywhere else in the furniture. Backside friends with TDRs are shocked with the quality, spare spools, choice of handles, line lay, drag and also thought the removable shells ( if required ) on the spools was a brilliant idea. I think they feel a little hard done bye.

Super quick delivery. I bought the CS10 3000. Very impressed with design and weight of the reel. Super smooth drag system. Also came with two extra shallow (my preferred size) and a double handle should I wish to change. A great value high quality reel.

Having already tried the cs6 in the 3 and 4000 sizes and been extremely impressed, i plumbed for a 4000 cs10 , the cs6s are brilliant reels (and the bogof offer of 60 for the pair made them the deal of the year ) the cs10 blows them away.. best reel I’ve ever had, love it..
