it handles light stuff well,for a bait-caster.as for the drag i have pulled in 8 to 12.5lbs large mouth bass with no problems at all.the drag is more than enough for fresh water applications.imo the only problem i have heard of is if you backlash it real bad it gets stuck in the frame. i love the reel. i think its better than my core! :
i did not know they were made of cellulose acetate. thank for the info, i will tell him to not do that any more. i learn something new here every day! i love this site
my buddy does this all the time,he says it just cotton, it will be fine.i do not think its bad but i would never do it. what are your thoughts on this?
what kind of hooks are you using?bait keepers,ewg,double frog hook?I use a med rod and use a double frog hook,and when i feel a tug i use a light sweep hook set.maybe your hook set is to hard.ripping it out of the basses mouth.hope this helps
if you get a bait-caster you are going to need a casting rod.your spinning rod will work but i have broken a few spinning rods with bait-casters on them.they are designed different.
i got a skeet about three weeks ago. love it so much im going to get one more. i got mine for 190 i feel its the best reel for the money. i put it on my carrort stix and its under 10 oz its crazy light.i wish it came in a 7.1
