Great reel!I bought this reel to pair up with my Jordan Lee super finness rod. I put a few layers of mono on it and then filled the rest of the spool with 10lb XPS braid along with a 12 lb leader. The reel operated great! Cast’s amazing and reels nice and smooth! Caught several fish on it already! Definitely recommend.
Great Solid ReelI have owned this reel for about a year now and I have had zero problems or complaints. The drag is awesome and I love the overall construction of this reel ! I have had no mechanical issues or malfunctions, I would definitely recommend this product.
Line won't stay on the spoolLine will not, after repeated attempts, stay on the spool. The line constantly found it's way under the spool and wrapped around the shaft. I own several Abu Garcia spinning reels, including a Revo Winch, and have never had trouble with constant line unspooling and line going under the spool to wind around the shaft. Piece of junk. Won't waste any more time with this seriously defective design.
Previous Feedback
Comments: I've got one in the 30 which I spool up with 6-pound mono. The problem I had was getting it to fit on any of my spinning rods. It would not fit on any of my Falcon rods because they made the reel foot too thick. Got it to fit on a Bass Pro rod. My other Abu Garcia reels (Revo X and Elite Max) did not have this issue. I've used the reel twice and it is fine for casual users or friends that need to borrow equipment.
