no bait clicker or lever drag make trolling difficult

Line capacity - you would need a pretty big spinner to hold 200yrds of 40b mono.


All that so you can cast without backlash? whynot buy a mag'd reel or just practice casting?


x2 Way Way to expensive for a quality one. If my lotto #s ever come up, all be buying a couple of stellas!
