Now I use it just to see how long it's going to last. I want to say the sealine reels are like the glocks of fishing reels.
i can understand you defending where your wife works, but you should especially know then that they barely carry any DECENT variety of good fishing gear.. i own a few Sealines myself and yes they're great reels but they literally have a handful of good reels.. defend them if you want but facts are facts. You want more than a few choices? search elsewhere or be confined to choosing from a limited selection.. but hey some ppl like to have their options limited, I'm not one of them
