Bundy 0 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Has any one had any experience with these reels. Look pretty good value for around $230 mark. Huge line capacity and claimed 60lbs drag....almost look too good for the money hence my question!ThanksBundy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cal 480 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Awesome tough reels,in the mould of the Penn spinfishers,my brother has one,the sort of thing youd want if you were into hard core stuff like fishing the West Coast or making regular trips to places like Salt Creek ect.No bells and whistles,just strong and basic,stll pretty smooth,could only get them from the states via ebay ,but I have noticed of recent times they are a bit cheaper here,and on the scene here now and quite a few of the catalogues have them,so my guess is with our dollar up ,a shitload have been imported in.Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plankton 725 Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Great, inexpensive, tough reels. The two biggest models ( 8 and 9 series) are quite heavy and the circumference of the spools is massive, so not the best casters in the world unless they're on a rod with a really big stripping guide, but would work great for offshore jigging.
