Accurate ATD Platinum TwinDrag® Reels

The Pinnacle of Big Game Performance – 100% Made in the USA

The Accurate ATD Series represents the very best in precision-engineered lever drag reels. Crafted in the USA on state-of-the-art CNC machines, every ATD reel is meticulously built from billet aircraft-grade aluminum and fitted with oversized stainless steel gears and shafts for unmatched strength and durability.

At the heart of the ATD is Accurate’s legendary TwinDrag® technology, featuring large, oversized drag washers on both sides of the spool. This balanced system distributes pressure evenly, eliminating drag fluctuation and ensuring consistent performance under extreme loads. Whether line is peeling off slowly or screaming at high speed, the drag curve remains rock solid—changing less than one pound under acceleration.

Built to tame the ocean’s most powerful predators, the ATD is a true muscle reel, designed for anglers who demand absolute reliability when it matters most. Oversized ball bearings handle relentless pressure, while the rigid, overbuilt frame and spool ensure that every ounce of your power is transferred directly to the fish.

Technology

TWINDRAG

Our Patented Twin Drag Technology utilizes Carbon Fiber Drag washers and Stainless steel Friction washers on both sides of the spool to creates the strongest smoothest drag possible.

Technology

Direct Shift

There is no need for the handle to rock backwards or to relieve pressure while shifting with Direc Shift. The Low Gear is always engaged and meshes with the high gear to drive whichever speed you are after.

Tame the Beast

The ATD Platinum TwinDrag® is the Flagship series of the Accurate line. Designed with Accurate’s patented TwinDrag® feature to deliver smooth, powerful drags, the larger ATD models put out in excess of 100 pounds of drag for targeting giant fish. These reels have been internally designed to handle high drag loads by applying an even amount of pressure on both sides of the reel with two synced dogs to provide the ultimate stopping power. The ATD offers a smooth, even drag that is consistent through the fight with little to no start-up inertia, alleviating the possibility of high drag spikes when the line comes off the reel. If you are looking to harness the ultimate stopping power for big game fishing, the ATD is the finest reel on the market of its kind.

ATD 130

Customer service was outstanding! The reel seems like an absolute tank. Fit a finish are what I have come to expect with Accurate reels. We have not had a chance to fish it yet due to bluefin tuna being closed recreationally in NJ until December 31. If the fish are here in April when we splash I will update this review with a usage report.

The best big game reel ever made

i have fished them all and can say without any reservation that the Accurate ATD reels are the finest big game reels ever made full stop.
When you are on a cow sized tuna the cranking power and spectacular drags are unmatched.
Do yourself a favor and get one—you won’t be disappointed

ATD Platinum Twin Drag Reels

I was doubtful of these reels when they were first introduced. I fished an ATD 50W for the first time on one of the San Diego Longrange trips that had 50 plus of this product line aboard for anyone to try out. I borrowed one, and quickly got hooked up to a 170# Yellowfin Tuna. To my complete surprise, I handled this fish far easier than with my own personal gear (from another well known manufacturer). What truly amazed me was when the Captain walked over and advised me to but the reel in low-gear. I honestly thought that it was already in that position!!!
Pushing that button into low gear was simply mind boggling. The power and ease on the retrieve was unbelievable. From that trip - now many years ago, I’ve fished nothing but Accurates. Spend your money once in this game, fish Accurate.
