The whole combo weights like a 1 lb Lol.
You can find the reel offered in a power handle option too if you look around. If not I would be happy to help. I've got both righty and lefty in stock.
This guy nailed it. My two sons 8 and 9 have been using the quantum accurist for a couple of summers and it’s a perfect kids reel. They even use it when we go seabassing. I highly recommend putting a power handle on it.
