your thoughts on Pinnacle reels

[Bream Master]

Anyone use Pinnalce reels (BC) ?  I was at Wal-Mart and saw a Pinnacle Inertia for 59.99.  It looks nice.  The bait monkey almost took me but I want to hear from ya'll first.

Thanks

I have made a few posts to the same effect, Bream Master. It is one sweet looking reel for the money. If my bait monkey beats yours to the punch, I'll let you know via PM. Please do the same.   I am thinking about replacing a Shimano Callisto (40$) with it.

I just received mine in the mail today haven't got to test it out yet and probably won't be able to for a couple more weeks on the water(Lakes covered in ice) But I'm going to spool it up and and test it in the back yard tomorrow. So I will let you know what I think of it.

I have several Pinnacle reel Bc and spinning. they are nice reels for the $$. I just picked up a new Solene on ebay for $30 feel like a reel that cost a lot more.

Just one note. If the reels need service, you will have to send them back to Pinnacle to be service. Pinnical does not ship parts out to reel shops. Reel shops can clean them, but not fix them. they are good and fast about cleaning and fixing reels. in the past I have had them replace an older reel that need fixed with a newer better one free of charge
