 CANNOT RECOMMEND August 10, 2008
I purchased the reel at Bass Pro for my wife who is a beginner. It is very easy to use but, it completely failed on its second trip to the coast. My wife hooked two fish in a row but, the line broke each time. I noticed that the line had nicks and had no strength. I changed the line and the next fish kept taking drag while not allowing the fish to be reeled. I had to tighten the drag to the point that it would not tighten anymore. It would still grind and was very hard to turn for just a two pound fish. I took it apart and cleaned the reel but, it still functioned the same. A year had passed so I just threw it away.
 solidly built and good casting reel July 20, 2008

I really enjoy this reel. It casts quite well, comparable to my baitcasters, and I have found it to be well constructed of solid metal. I would like there to be two models, with one having a larger reel capacity. If you need stronger line, the capacity becomes limited. I have not found the problems suggested by the other reviewer who was very negative. On the contrary, I found this reel to be solidly built, and a good value considering the cost of comparable baitcast and spinning reels.
Would not recommend this reel. June 1, 2008
I realy want a nice current Zebco push button reel. But this one went out on me on the second season. I had a complete failure. One of the catch pins would get caught behind the reel. My fishin was done for the day and I was really bummed. It did see some good use for a season and when it was working it casted well.
