ive got one, used it for a trip to steep spinnig for mackies. held up well spooled with 50lb. pushed it to its limit on locked drags a fair bit and handled it fine, got snapper and baldies on it as well and got some salmon on it at home as well. smooth and a good reel for the price. very solid thats for sure
always looking for a new challenge!!
