I fish mainly for pike and shortly after a year the bearings are going and it is losing its original smoothness
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am a tournament fisherman and bass fishing guide. This is the reel I use for my tournaments and I am extremely happy with it. I have many reels by many manufacturers and have been using baitcasters for over 40 years. By far this is the best reel I have ever used. It is comfortable in my hand, light weight, casts easily and farther than others, and rarely do I have backlashes. There are times I espected to get a backlash (throwing into the wind, etc.) but I still did not get them. I have not used the newer Premier models but I cannot believe I would be happier than with this reel. I stopped looking for a better real when I started purchasing this one.
I would recommend this to a friend!
