Pros

This reel is amazing for the price. Not only is it a qualify spinning reel, but the price is great! This one is as good as any i've used. Its a mitchell, grandson loves it. Thanks mitchell and congratulations, this one is a keeper!

The new 308 can be changed to left or right as desired. Two new spools for my new mitchell 308pro are on the way. Being a classic angler hooked on vintage mitchell reels for my lifetime, this is one i would highly recommend to the new anglers as well ...  Read More

Fishing for steelhead in oregon. Caught several nice size trout. Baby spinner bait, 75 + ft. Ball 10.



Cons

Even after oiling and greasing, it is still not smooth, and generally does not have the feel of higher quality reels. Made in china but the worst part is that green canyon outfitters will not give me an exchange. Not the 300 that was advertised.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Reel is very smooth except when retrieving and the anti reverse lever is engaged if the bail is not in the exact position it is next to impossible to snap the bail shut unless you disengage the anti reverse feature very annoying
