Pros & Cons
Pros
It works great. I get them serviced at the start of each season, and they never let me down. Very nicely made at a very good price. I can't even name another real that is in the same league as this beast.
The bait clicker works really well. Good response, clicker isn't has loud as i would have like but it the job. The bait feeder option is awsome!

Competitiveness

The bait clicker works really well it’s not as loud as you’d think as compared to an ambassador 6500s
