Pros & Cons

Pros

The baitcast reel is much lighter and makes all day fishing easier on the back and arms. I need it stronger on windy days with chop to bring the bait along. This model has a dual breaking system which makes it easy to get it dialed in. This is my firs...  Read More

The reel works very smooth for me. Adjusting the drag is easy and it stays where i want it. Smooth, settings are very touchy. I use it mostly for flipping and it works.

It's hard to beat the quality and feel of the rod &reel. It casts smoothly and is easy to unravel if i get a birds nest.

The magnetic brake is another feature. To understand, the spool is tunes to the weight of the *. To my surprise, it is cranked with the right hand.



Cons

Lasted me 2 months with minimal use.

Reel grinds and will not free spool. Not strong enough for a deep cranking reel. Tensioner knob does absolutely nothing.

Quality


It is well made and has been a lot of fun to use


Breaks and tension knob work well and they are easy to set up


I use an ultralight spin reel and stopped having problems with backlash or casting distance


The bait sailing and then stopping will not stop the spool on the reel from moving and momentum caused the huge birdsnest in my photos

Price


You can’t go wrong for the money great value


This is a great reel for the money


Overall it is a great value under 40


For the money this reel is great

Competitiveness


Smooth operation i like it better than my abu garcia


I have been fishing a 5500c for years and have a abu garcia rocket but this reel cast longer than the rocket which i paid 250


They cast like a dream and i have some more expensive reels to compare them to and kast king will outcast those reels very very easily


It shows to some reels can be duds but thats with every brand
