drag problems, Oct 16, 2007
reviewer: Anonymous from Calif.
 
Reel is super smooth to operate but don't try to fight a 2 pound bass. the drag won't tighten enough to keep from cranking against the drag,and won't stop a run
 
 
great performance reel, Mar 11, 2005
reviewer: Rob Carlson from Montgomery, AL
 
First off its very well made. Reeling in is very stable and smooth. I don't know if the Hot Sauce lube makes it this smooth but I'm sure that it doesn't hurt. The titanium bait wire is also nice because you don't have to worry about bending it out of shape. Its just like a titanium spinnerbait. It will snap back into shape as long as you don't bend it too much.

The only semi-negative thing that I can say about this is that I would prefer a spool design like a Daiwa ABS spool. It's supposed to be designed wide and sloped for increased casting. I still think that they can go wider but it might just be me.

Recommendation: High
