Actual Customer Feedback:
"The price point with this reel is not too pricey still I think its higher than its actually worth. The durability on these reels is simply not there. If I'm spending the money to buy one, I want it to last more than 1 maybe 2 seasons of moderate use."

"I purchased this reel for my Mother as a birthday gift end of last summer. This reel is used only a couple times a month durring the summer for bottom fishing in the chesapeke bay. Usually catch 8-10" perch and 8-11" Spot with this reel so it gets lots of reeling action but not much stress."
