Lew's Laser Mg Speed Spool

[Jose Elias]

Has anyone used them? I was thinking of purchasing one, but I wanted to see if anyone had used them already before I purchased.

I like mine a lot. Its on my jig rod, naybe not as refined as my tournament pro, but waaaay better than all the other $60-70 reels ive handled. Its not a light bait rell but for heavier baits and most things ive thrown with it, its been great. Its still super smooth although not as tight feeling as the pricier lews models. I actually bought mine cause i wanted something closer to the weight of the tournament pro that i use for cranking. Its quite light. As for the graphite frame and strength go, i once blew up a ryobi v-mag lite with an all plastic frame, and it was the cheesy plastic v-spool that exploded on that thing from line pressure. You will not have that problem with the lews rells, this one especially exceeded my expectations and imho is light years ahead of offerings like the shimano canean, which im sure casts fine, but just felt too cheap and plasticky for me. If youre worried, gett a standard speed spool as others suggest, you wont be dissapointed. I think the laser is the best reel out there in its price range though. Just my. 02¢
