Being that it contains an extremely dependable and well-fashioned twin drag interference system, this reel is an excellent option for fishing still waters and for lough fishing.

The reel itself is quite rough, long-wearing and doesn’t generally undergo breakdowns. The frame is created from die-cast metal, nevertheless the spools are polymer, which aids to keep the weight of the reel to a minimum. The cassette-type spools are straightforward to remove for fast line modifications. It is not hard to work the drag adjustment through a big knob that's positioned on one side of the reel, in the core. When fighting a fish, I've observed the drag to be even and far more than enough, although it does feel rather soft or malleable. I did discover that the drag adjustment knob, other than feeling squishy or spongy, can rock back and forth, which is somewhat unnerving as the time you have a fish snared.
