The rover 60 casts far and smooth, retrieves so easily and smoothly, and with big cats in the 20 lb range it handled superbly.
Good start drag system and smooth castability combined to help in a successful catch.
This is how you remedy: unspool the line in entirely in a large field, and add tension to the line and rewind.
A fish dragged it overboard the canoe after 30 minutes first time using on town water supply pond.
Price
This is a excellent reel for the price.
At under $50 it was a good value and works as well as similar reels that cost 70% more.
It's not worth waiting for the bottom price and miss all the fun experiences, just for a few dollars' worth of savings.
I got the second r40 at the lowest price i've ever seen: 42.
