Killin' Shimano and Quantum, Dec 27, 2006

reviewer: Anthony R. from Palm Harbor, Florida USA

I've had this reel for about two years now and my problems have been minimal. The 6 centrifugal brake pins may snap out on strong casts which is annoying so I removed 2 of them completely and left the other four in the out position. This seems to be an all around good setting for different lure weights and wind conditions. The free spool on this thing is so awesome that I feel it works best for 3/8 ounce and bigger for casting but you can flip or pitch a soft plastic with no wieght no problem. The retrieves are equally effortless and the drag works fine. The finish has not held up very well but the mechanics have. For 130 bucks or even less on ebay, I would tell anyone to buy one.

not a reliable reel, Feb 12, 2006

reviewer: James from Baton Rouge, LA

Bought the reel and it broke the first day on the water. The drag is very sticky and I broke alot of fish off. Bearings made real loud noise and one of them just froze up on me. The worm gear also had no greese on it and every time I cast I heard the loud noise. Very poorly made reel.
