Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The quality of craftsmanship is excellent. The finish on everything is flawless.

The spool is a nice feature which makes spooling the reel easy. I love how smooth it reels in and the casting out is just as nice. Use it for a whiting rig but has reeled in a few runt blues without issue. It is easy to attach and easy toattache.

The multi-disk carbon drag system is similar (or superior) to the aftermarket upgrades i've paid extra to add to other reels. The reel even has an ipx6 rating. Will definitely be purchasing another.

Not only is it saltwater safe it is waterproof. Feels amazing in your hand, and turns so effortlessly. It seems like a fantastic reel for the money.

The initials ip stand for “ingress protection”. This reel has waterproof seals that keep salt water out. It has everything it needs to do freshwater or saltwater fishing.

Cons

It's not as smooth as i would have thought for the price.

Competitiveness

This reel is well built and quality is much better than the sharky reel.

I was skeptical about the price, but it has proven to be more than worth its value, and easily the equal to many of the much mo... Read More
