The drag holds strong even on big trout. The look is solid and the reel feels heavy and built to last. Works well with my 5-weight rod and has held up well after several outings in the river.
Leah Lyman –
Great value for the performance. The carbon fiber drag is reliable and the spool design feels stable. A bit heavy, but that’s expected for a high-performance reel.

I’ve used this reel in both freshwater and coastal environments. The drag strength is impressive and the reel doesn’t wobble during casting. Looks professional and feels premium.
