Madeleine Miller –
This reel has been a game-changer for my bass fishing trips. The deeper spool and improved gears handle big baits without slippage. The titanium crank arm feels solid and the drag system is smooth and responsive. Built to last, and it’s made right here in the U.S.A. Highly recommend for serious anglers.

After switching from my old reel, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in casting accuracy and control. The brass gears and titanium arm give it a strong, reliable feel. No line out issues even with heavy lures. Solid build quality and performance.
Richard Hunter –
Great performance on larger baits. The drag system holds up well under pressure. A bit heavier than the standard model, but that’s expected given the upgrades. Slight learning curve with the casting technique, but worth the effort.
