Great reel, for the money

Tried this reel after seeing several people comment about the casting distance that this reel achieves without backlashing. My experience supports these claims. This reel is easy to set-up and simple to fine-tune to the bait you are using. It does offer very long-casting performance and seems pretty solid for a reel in this price range. Only drawback is that the one I have is pretty loud when casting (bearing whine). I will take it apart, clean and lubricate tit to see if that has any impact on the noise. For a budget reel, it's as good or better as anything else in the same price range that i've tried. If it holds up over time, I would say it's a good value.

PRECISION-MACHINED DRIVETRAIN

GF reels are built for harsh conditions with CNC-machined, hard-brass gearing supported by precision stainless steel ball bearings. A stainless steel spool shaft supports the forged aluminum spool, enabling the use of braided line in the heaviest cover.

CARBON-FIBER DRAG

The friction washers in the GF drag are made from woven carbon fiber, which is virtually impervious to wear. The carbon washers are mated to stainless steel washers providing drag lockdown up to 19 lbs while remaining silky-smooth.

CARBON-FIBER HANDLE

The ultra-light, one-piece, carbon-fiber handle provides extreme strength under even the heaviest cranking conditions. Its sleek, swept design puts the handle knobs closer to the reel's center line, resulting in less side torque under load.

LINE MEMO

With the unique line memo dial you'll never have to guess what size line to run. Just pick your line, set the dial, and always keep tabs on line sizes as you rig your rod/reel setups for different techniques.
