Bates Fishing Co. SAM Spinning Reels

 The Bates Fishing Co. SAM Spinning Reels 

The SAM (Spinning American Made) 2500 represents our commitment to domestic manufacturing. Machined in the USA and final assembly completed at our Sherman, TX headquarters, this reel is the embodiment of American craftsmanship. Designed specifically for inshore anglers targeting redfish, snook, stripers, and dare we say tarpon, the SAM 2500 is built for next-level durability and salt-ready performance.

To back this durability, every SAM 2500 is protected by our 3-Year, “No BS” Warranty, ensuring that your customers can fish with total confidence in their equipment. We have invested over $5 million in dedicated machinery and sourced 75% of our materials from within the United States to ensure this reel sets a new bar for performance.
