Great reel for the surf. Lots of line capacity, especially if using braid. Very smooth.

A very good reel for the money, 09/25/2009

This is a very good reel but I had to return it and order another one because this one had a bad drag. It sticks with every revolution so it was a lemon.

Excellent Saltwater reel. I use it with 12 foot surf rod and 30 pound Spiderwire (8 lb diameter) casts very well and bait feeder drag tells you when a fish is on.

Will probably buy a second for my other rod.

works great, 08/06/2009
By HudsonCarpGuy, Williamstown MA
Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

the reel performed flawlessly, caught 3 carp in the 25-30 pound range and it worked great, the bait feeder option is the way to go. the reel is actually a little bigger than i thought it would be, now looking at the ABF 50 to replace my aging Penn Good luck fishing and dont forget to take a kid with you :)

GOIN' FISHIN FOR THE BIG ONES!, 04/20/2009
By macpete, Stockbridge, GA
Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

I tried this reel immediately on Tybee Island and it works great. It is very quiet and retrieves perfectly. Suggest you do not overload the spool with too much line as it is hard to control when you first place your rig on the line. No other problems. Still trying to undertand the bait feeder device on the rear of the reel? I use 20 lb line on this reel.

Watch out Shimano, 03/20/2009

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

I have never owned anything but Shimano reels...so when it came time to replace one of my baitrunner reels, I happened to run across this reel at walmart...I decided to get it simply because the price was so good...I was blown away by how well built this reel is...It gives Shimano a run for its money...I am going to order two more, and give my older baitrunners to a friend...

A great reel, 12/04/2008
By ajbsully, Indialantic, FL

I've used this product only twice but it meets all my expectations as far as performance goes. The bail and handle are very smooth and it's a good weight for surf casting.
