Pros & Cons
Pros
Drag and clicker works every time. Used it all last week musky fishing on georgian bay. Smooth drag, good line capacity and great cranking leverage for retrieving big musky trolling baits.
Cons
The only good thing about the reel is the line counter (one star). Turns out these are right only.
Highlights
Quality
Perfect, the future will tell me quality
The clicker is super loud, which i like when i am trolling with downriggers.
Price
You won't go wrong with this purchase or price.
The reel is solid and great for the price
Competitiveness
Use on a dipsey diver pole and it takes a beating!
They hold 200 feet of 50lb braid and 800 ft of 30lb mono (1000feet).
Love the 453d, very good reel, i use for trolling muskie, with 100lb test
