Just brought a Penn generation V bait caster and thinking about throwing it in the bin and buying a Daiwa Bayard instead! does anyone have any good feedback on the reel??? and what it the quality etc... like?
THe thing i hated about the penn was when you pull line off the spool the level line stayed still and the line gets caught under the layers. does the bayard do this?

most new round baitcasters
most new round baitcasters have moving levelwind when in freespool.
The Bayard is not a bad reel but for the money there's better reels out there. Calcutta 200B and TD Luna 203 which is twice as good.
