The Greenback Cutthroat edition is a stunning piece. The hand-painted clicker plate and unique numbering make it stand out. The drag system is smooth and the click is very crisp. I love the limited edition feel and the fact that each purchase supports a conservation project.

This reel is a perfect blend of classic design and modern features. The external clicker adds a nice touch, and the greenback theme is well executed. It’s a great addition to my fishing gear collection.

I appreciate the limited availability and the environmental donation aspect. The reel performs well in the field, and the clicker is easy to use. A bit heavier than expected for a lightweight model, but still functional.
