I’ve used the CCF-X2 on several saltwater trips and it handled a large barracuda without any drag issues. The drag system is smooth and responsive. The waterproofing is solid and the reel feels durable.

This reel outperformed the NV-G series in my testing. The drag strength is impressive and the startup is much easier. I’m now using it for all my deep-sea fishing.
Neil Burgess –
Great build quality and the drag system works well. A bit heavier than expected, but the performance in tough conditions is worth it.
Nicholas Paige –
Fished it on a trip to the coast with a large group. The reel held up under pressure and didn’t fail in any situation. Highly recommend for serious anglers.

The Silver King size fits my setup perfectly. Drag performance is excellent and the reel feels balanced. Slightly more expensive than others, but the quality justifies it.
