KastKing™ Launches Fundraising Program for Breast Cancer Awareness

Leave a comment

KastKing™ will donate all profits from the sale of KastKing™ Pink Braided Fishing Line during October to Breast Cancer Research and reward creative talents.

Hempstead, Long Island, NY (September 30, 2014) — During the month of October KastKing™ is donating 100% of profits from KastKing™ Pink Braided Fishing Line (http://www.eposeidon.com/braid-fishing-line) to breast cancer research. The Reel Men Fish Pink program challenges men to “spool it pink,” and initiate conversations with their male friends about supporting the women in their lives to be screened for breast cancer. The KastKing™ fundraising program begins October 1 and runs until October 31, 2014.

“We are reaching out to a few in the fishing community to spool up their fishing reels with pink braided line and have them use their social media channels to in turn challenge three or more others to do the same,” says Eposeidon Inc.’s Marketing Director Tom Gahan. “We’d like to see how big this fundraising effort can get. We feel that equally important to raising money is encouraging guys to be supportive of their gal’s health care issues and talking with them about getting a mammogram.” Eposeidon, Inc. is the parent company of KastKing™ brands. Braided fishing line is used for many fishing techniques in saltwater and freshwater. Pink is the official color for breast cancer awareness in October.

Eposeidon will select five of the most creative, educational, or touching YouTube videos or Facebook stories that challenge others to participate. A dozen roses will be sent on behalf of the winners to the most important woman in their life.

A woman currently living in the U.S. has a 12 percent, or 1 in 8, lifetime risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer – compared to a 1 in 11 risk in the 1970s. Women diagnosed at early stages of breast cancer have a higher five-year relative survival rate. According to the American Cancer Society, the five-year relative survival ranges from 99 percent for localized disease (confined to the breast) to 25 percent for distant-stage disease (spread to other organs).

The money being donated will go towards breast cancer research and to help women without health insurance to get free mammogram.

“With so many issues out there, we know that it’s hard for some people to donate their time and creative talents. We realize that many will take part out of their own goodness, but we wanted to keep it interesting and spur people to action,” says Tate Qui, CEO Eposeidon. “A lot of people doing a little bit can make a big difference. We are proud to support issues such as breast cancer awareness and we are ready to jump in and do our part. Our Reel Men Fish Pink challenge with our pink braided fishing line is one of many other support programs we will put forward in the future.”

KastKing Introduces Specialty Fishing Rods

Leave a comment

KastKing, a division of Eposeidon Outdoor Adventure, Inc. has created a line of specific use fishing rods that bring innovation and technology to fishing tackle.

Hempstead, Long Island, NY (August 25, 2014) — Eposeidon‘s KastKing™ division that sells high-quality economically priced fishing reels and fishing line has added fishing rods to their product lineup. KastKing™ will offer 23 models made for freshwater techniques and kayak fishing. Their bass fishing rod line carries the name Perigee, named after the positioning of the moon when fish are most active, and Phantom for KastKing’s™ patent-pending kayak rod series. KastKing™ has designed and manufactured spinning and baitcasting rods in the Perigee line for specific bass fishing techniques such as: crankbait, flipping/C-rig, topwater, frogging and punching, jerkbait, and drop-shot/shakey head.

There are also KastKing™ Perigee multipurpose spinning and baitcasting rods for a variety of species and techniques. In addition, KastKing™ has created a rod specifically for kayak fishing. It was designed after input and months of testing by kayak anglers in freshwater and saltwater.

“Possibly the greatest feature of these rods is the price,” says Eposeidon’s Marketing Director, Tom Gahan, “With top quality components and features that offer action of rods costing hundreds more, we have a good outlook for market share with our price-point set in the $70 range. It took a lot of work to pack so much quality into these rods and offer the best value anywhere. For the angler’s sake, we’re glad we could.”

Eposeidon will be offering a special pre-release discount on Perigee and Phantom rods at the beginning of September. Pre-release ordering details will be available at http://www.eposeidon.com at that time. Customers who place a pre-release order will have their rods shipped out after arriving in Eposeidon’s warehouses in mid-September. Once the KastKing™ rods are in inventory, the regular retail price of $79.95 will apply.

Drew Daniel of Drew Daniel Adventures, who comes from a fishing family in the sporting goods business and is a renowned outfitter of guided fishing trips in the US, Mexico, and Brazil says about KastKing™ Bass rods, “The very best rod on the market, We have a closet full of other brand rods, KastKings are my go to rod for fishing all over the world.”

“An excellent multi functioning rod for jigging for bottom dwellers or casting for predators. In a kayak, rod selection is so important since you can only bring a few, but these rods give you the ability to have a multi-species day with just one pole,” commented Elias Vaisberg, who competes in fishing competition internationally and has won the Jamaica Bay Kayak Fishing Classic in 2013 and 2014 that has hundreds of competitors.

Tate Cui, CEO at Eposeidon says, “Eposeidon listened to input from the angling community for their wants and needs in a quality fishing rod. We gathered the best designers, engineers, and materials to create a fantastic product. The feedback from our testers has exceeded our expectations. We are willing to work within tighter margins to make KastKing rods affordable and stay within our company motto, ‘the thing we do best is save you money on fishing tackle’.”

(http://www.eposeidon.com) will rock the fishing tackle world at the 2014 ICAST (International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades) set to take place July 16 through 18 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Located at booth 1702 will be Eposeidon’s array of the company’s latest fishing reels from their KastKing and Ecooda reel division, KastKing fishing lines, and lures from the MadBite division. Being introduced at the 2014 ICAST show will be Eposeidon’s new line of spinning and baitcasting fishing rods, including unique models for specific applications. ICAST is the leading annual sportfishing trade show hosting thousands of buyers and sellers of the sportfishing industry from around the world.

Eposeidon, which has been stunning anglers since its introduction of high quality braided fishing line selling for a fraction of the price of other brands, is making strong headway in other areas of the fishing tackle industry.

Eposeidon, which is also the exclusive North American distributor of Ecooda fishing reels, introduced 6 new spinning reel models from their KastKing product line in the first half of 2014 including the KastKing Blade, Orcas, and Triton – all featuring carbon fiber drag washers as standard equipment, 5 new models of low profile baitcasters, and 10 models of their new RXA conventional baitcaster.

“Through our exacting manufacturing, quality control, purchasing and shipping practices we have successfully been able to deliver top quality products at a selling price that is so low it baffles some buyers,” says Tate Cui CEO at Eposeidon, Inc.. “With our sophisticated supply chain management and a strong belief to let more people enjoy fishing, Eposeidon continues bringing great affordable products and more fun to the fishing community.”

“We were already strong in international sales and now we are making tremendous progress in the U.S. market. Our products enjoy positive reviews and the price point has spurred sales beyond our expectations,” says Tom Gahan, Eposeidon’s Marketing Director. “Three key elements make up our brand – high quality, low price for retail and wholesale buyers, and free or low cost shipping. These essential components have allowed us to move forward swiftly.”

Eposeidon will have a special wholesale dealer program in place at the 2014 ICAST show that allows qualified buyers to place a minimum order at a discount that is usually reserved for much larger product stock orders. The offer includes free shipping. Buyers need to visit Eposeidon at booth 1702 to place their order.

“We want buyers to have the ability to try out our products on a small scale order, even if it is only just one piece so that they can experience our quality and customer service,” added Cui.

Leave a comment

Deep water cranking power and fishing comfort are key features of this new series reel from KastKing™.

Hempstead, NY, USA (April 29, 2014) — KastKing™ a division of Eposeidon Outdoor Adventure, Inc. announces they have added a new specialty category baitcasting fishing reel, the KastKing™ WhiteMax, to their product lineup.

KastKing’s™ WhiteMax Low Profile reel offers lighter weight for a more enjoyable fishing experience. Housed within its low profile, graphite frame weighing only 7.7 ounce/ 218 grams is a powerful 5.1:1 precision cut gear ratio package. This lower gearing provides more torque and requires less cranking effort. WhiteMax’s light weight combined with a low gear ratio is less tiring for the angler.

Each KastKing™ WhiteMax has an impressive array of 9 stainless steel ball bearings and 1 instant anti-reverse roller bearing along with 10 lbs. / 4.5 Kg of drag and a 10 lb./ 100 yd. (0.33 mm/ 90m) cross-drilled, anodized forged aluminum spool that brings smoothness, stopping power, and ample line capacity to the battle with aggressive game fish.

“As with all of our products, we are proud of the new KastKing™ WhiteMax,” says Eposeidon’s Marketing Director, Tom Gahan. “With a retail price in the $40 range, it once again reinforces our commitment to delivering quality products at the best prices to keep fishing affordable.”

The KastKing™ White Max’s precision brake system with side-plate adjustment can be matched to any conditions for accurate backlash-free casts. A soft-touch thumb bar spool release and twin EVA foam grips further reduce fatigue.
