Mattfisho 0 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi guysLooking at getting an Ecooda Kyzer ks in the 1500 size. It seems like quite a nice reel, i looked at it in the shop and it felt right. Just wondering if anyone has any feedback on them? I have only read good reports of them.Heres the link http://ecooda.com.au/reels/kyzer/ Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ale 301 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Id never heard of the brand, but looks like all the other Generic OEM type China reels on the market.Im sure for the $$$ it will be fine, just be aware and have realistic expectations of it.

TT 2 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 They are a really new brand on the market.But what from what I know some on the eastern states use them and like them.A quick google search should bring up some other aus forums with people's opinions on them TT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just1More 0 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 I have a 1500 put it on a 1-3kg pfluger president running 5lb braid I think its quite a nice reel,I would say its not as refined as a shimano or diawa is a Lil bit heavy for that size reel and the 6kg of drag is a Lil over kill the drag also feels a bit tight before it starts to slip but is very smooth when hooked up to a running fish that's about all I could fault with it and that's being picky.I have landed my pb westlakes bream on it at 35cm went for a good run and handled it great also hooked a not quite 1kg salmon down sellicks that went for huge runs had no dramas landing this either and I'm confident this reel could handle much bigger fish can't wait for winter to play with it on the bigger salmon.For the money these reels are most definitely worth a look at and I'd have no problems buying another ie the 3000 model Quote Link to post Share on other sites
