I was completely shocked at how boring this reel made my first catch.I bought this reel about 6 months ago and coupled it with the Veritas rod as i figured it would handle anything i caught while wade fishing down here in South Texas.Well handle anything it did!!! My first catch was a 23'' red fish,as anyone who has ever caught a red fish knows that at 23'' your in for a good battle.This reel muscled in my red fish like a BOSS!! I was in awe of the strength of this little reel and the backbone of the coupled rod made this combo lethal!! I had to dumb down the drag and "play" with the fish now to give it a shot,poor fish. Anyone looking for an amazing rod and reel that can handle just about anything, you just cant go wrong with this combo and at these prices ABU is practically giving them away,thank you may i have another!!! Just be prepared to be bored your first couple of cast....
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fake comment?

It appears as though this comment was made by an Abu Garcia employee. Real reviews are more helpful and as consumers we notice this and lose trust because of these tricks. I could be wrong though....either way I just bought this reel used so I hope it is as good as you say.

Had this reel for 6 months. I use this in saltwater for my wade and surf fishing. I havent done one maintenance and works like new. I just rinse out with fresh water after every use. I was amazed when reel in a 30 pound Red Drum and 40 Black Drum. Its very smooth and light on the hand. And I havent bought a reel since. Ima same Shimano Curado for freshwater and use ORRA Inshore in saltwater. Great reel.....

I bought this for the price. It work good the first two fishing trips. The 3rd time out the gears started to wear out and the drag felt horrible. This thing felt and work cheap. I took it back and paid the extra bucks on a REVO Inshore. Which is real dame amazing. The REVO S is another good one and cheaper than this. Ive never diss a Abu Garcia reel but this one I have too.
