I have two of these reels! When walking on a party boat I see the looks I get with my 5'6" rod, my low-profile Revo Inshore, and 12lb braid. But, once I put a rig on that I have devised, with Gulp, and start landing the Fluke, they all want to talk about the rod-reel setup! I have gone 10 times this year with this setup so far, and won the pool twice, and high-hook (most keepers), 5 times! My other setup is similar, except I have 30lb braid that I use for Blue Fish and Stripers. I think I am pushing the limit with the blues, but it handles the stripers with no problem. Get one of these reels today and you will be very very satisfied.

Bought three more of these reels!

Bought three more of these reels! I use both right and left handed reels, I am right handed and feel more comfortable with the left-handed reel. I rather have my strong arm (right) holding the rod, and the other reeling, with the butt under my right are pit.

I put this reel to the test offshore and inshore. Lures I use were the new Shimano WaxWings on a 7'2 G.Loomis rod. Went against Mahi Mahi, Bull Reds,Black Drum, and Tarpon from 15-55lbs. This reel kill it all the way. Had to put my Curado 300ej away. Revo Inshore a killer in any water.

Revo put it on em
I live and fish the South Louisiana marshes. I've fished with many brands and makes of reels. I have to say for inshore fishing this is my new favorite reel. It is extremely smooth, casts a mile, and the drag is awesome. I can't wait to get into some bull red's to really put it to the test...
