Pros & Cons

Pros

Great reel for the beginner and price conscienous. Doesn’t have a flipping switch, that’s its only downfall. It is very easy to set up the brakes for casting if you're a beginner.

Gave me confidence that the bearings are well lubricated. The rotating is so smooth. These are very friendl, they are as good as the low end revo.

Caught plenty of fish on it from bass-some small pike. I have one on a daiwa laguna 7’ medium fast rod—cheap sensitive rod—that is my go to setup for river/creek smallmouth. Using this reel for 2-3 pound ocean blue perch.

Awesome baitcaster for beginner or seasoned pro. I have 6 bait casters and this is a keeper!



Cons

Used it for a month and a half. Hung a 3 pound bass and the gears in the reel broke. Drag is junk. Poor quality gear.
