HAUT TON LS Carbon Fibre Ultralight Spinning Reel | 500–3000 | 5+1BB | 5.2:1

The HAUT TON LS Carbon Fibre Spinning Reel is an exceptionally lightweight reel series designed for anglers who want to keep their finesse and light-tackle setups as responsive as possible.

Starting at just 106g in the smaller LS500, LS800 and LS1000 models, the reel uses a carbon fibre main body to dramatically reduce weight while retaining the rigidity required for fishing.

The range extends from tiny 500-size finesse reels through to the larger 3000 model, allowing the same lightweight platform to cover ultralight freshwater fishing, bream and trout setups, estuary lure fishing and more general-purpose spinning.

A 5.2:1 gear ratio and 5+1 bearing system are used throughout the range, while larger models increase drag capacity to suit heavier tackle.

Model Guide

Model	Bearings	Gear Ratio	Body	Max Drag	Weight
LS500	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	3kg	106g
LS800	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	3kg	106g
LS1000	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	3kg	106g
LS1500	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	8kg	169g
LS2500	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	8kg	168g
LS3000	5+1	5.2:1	Carbon Fibre	Model dependent	Approx. 200g*

The LS3000 specification row is partially obscured in the supplied product image, so I wouldn't publish an exact drag figure until confirmed by the supplier.

Listed Line Capacity

Model	Line Capacity
LS500	0.4 / 120m · 0.6 / 100m
LS800	0.6 / 140m · 0.8 / 120m
LS1000	0.8 / 180m · 1.0 / 160m
LS1500	0.8 / 90m · 1.0 / 75m
LS2500	0.8 / 115m · 1.0 / 90m

The supplier image doesn't clearly identify the line-rating unit used for these figures, so I've kept the capacities in the manufacturer's original format rather than incorrectly labelling them as line diameter.

Which Size Should You Choose?

LS500 / LS800: Tiny reels for true ultralight setups, micro lures and compact creek rods.

LS1000: An excellent finesse option for trout, redfin, bream and Australian bass. At only 106g, this would pair particularly well with an Ajing or ultralight carbon rod.

LS1500: Adds substantially more drag while remaining under 170g — a good crossover between ultralight and conventional light-tackle fishing.

LS2500: The most versatile size for general Australian estuary lure fishing, including bream and flathead.

LS3000: The larger option for anglers wanting the LS carbon platform with additional capacity for more general-purpose spinning.

Ideal For Australian Fishing

🐟 Bream
🐟 Trout
🐟 Redfin
🐟 Australian Bass
🐟 Estuary Perch
🐟 Flathead
🐟 Whiting on lures
🎣 Ajing & finesse fishing
🎣 Ultralight soft plastics & hardbodies

A Great Match for Ultralight Rods

The biggest selling point here is weight. A 106g reel paired with one of the ultralight TSURINOYA/Ajing rods in your range would create an exceptionally light finesse combination, particularly for anglers casting small plastics and hardbodies for long sessions.

Saltwater Care

For saltwater fishing, lightly rinse the exterior with fresh water after use and allow the reel to dry before storage. Avoid directing high-pressure water into the reel body, drag or bearings.
