A lot of reel for a little price. The Cardinal 100i Spinning Reel features Abu Garcia's premier Stealth Oscillation for a very quiet, balanced retrieve with precision line lay. Built with a lightweight graphite body and rotor, the Cardinal 100i Reel's ultra-tough Everlast Bail System holds its shape through the roughest duty, ensuring long-term reliability.

Actual Customer Feedback:
"This is one of the best "cheap" reels i've ever used. I mainly use it for panfish but i've also caught big Mudfish ( AKA Bowfin) and Bass on it with no problems. If you want a good, smooth reel for under $50 that will last a while you can't go wrong with this one."

"Good product for the money. Love the light weight reel with a sensitive rod. Caught several 10lb catfish and enjoyed the light weight action of the rod and reel."

"This is a excellent reel. I have used the larger version for several years without any problems.I have already caught several fish on my new reel and works great ! I also use the Abu Garcia Bait Casting Reel for 30 years and never a problem."

"Very good quality reel but with a slight tendency to get loose loops in the line when reeling in which requires you to strip off line until the loop and rewind."
