Fished off the coast for several weeks and the reel handled heavy fish without any issues. The drag system is smooth and the bail stays open as intended. Strong build quality and reliable performance in saltwater.

Great for offshore fishing. The waterproofing holds up well in rainy and salty conditions. Slight adjustment needed on the drag tension, but overall a solid choice.
