lorney Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Good reels. Nicely built with good drags. My dad has a few and has a lot of hours on them. They have held up well. I sent you a PM. Quote
Guest JBear Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 I have one I use sometimes. For the money they are nice looking reels, the drag is outstanding, it's put a stopping to some ocean bright salmon and bow river rainbows in October. If they aren't the best reels for the money, they are tied with the g loomis venture series. My one knock on them, is the spool tends to rub against the frame. Which is a bit frustrating, and odd feeling, but you can't expect everything out of a 100 dollar reel. Their rods are great values as well! Quote
