Pros & Cons
Pros
The 3000 is not too big and quite light. Its a good priced reel. Solid reel, smooth, doesn't slip, the price point is outstanding.
It's better than i was expecting at such a great price. Looking forward to using this as my primary rig. Definitely would recommend it.
Kastking brutus 4000 reel is lightweight, but it handles 20-pound test line easily. I use it mostly for saltwater fishing even though the description says it's a freshwater reel. Bought it to use for catfishing.
Cons
Even if it were still under warranty i would have to pay $15 and ship the unit to them which would cost about $25 on my side so essentially there really is no warranty. Returned cheap junk. Luckily the gears locked within my return window.
The ration is 5:1 so every 5-6 turns, the top of the handle contacts the bail and makes a clunk noise. Spinning the reel to close the bail was incredibly stiff. Worked with it and oiled until it was somewhat functional.
Highlights
Quality
Feels like a very sturdy reel that will hopefully last for a while
What a great combo i have now thanks to the great quality of this reel.
Upgrade is successful and panfish are in danger!
I didn’t want to get rid of the rod and bought this reel and it’s been catching large mouth bass left and right.
Price
I am impressed with this reel for the price point.
Really good for the price, zero issues reels in great.
I got this heavily discounted for 16 bucks.
Very smooth reel value for the money and fast shipping.
Shipping
One of the 4000’s had a handle problem but they sent a new one on two day shipping.
Competitiveness
All of them perform exactly like my far more expensive sets.
