Nah man. The bullet is a far more superior Reel. It's not even a question. You had an option you didn't even pursue. You bought it from Amazon! So, you should have just ordered a replacement. I like the Brutus, but I had a similar situation just in reverse, my Brutus crapped out 2nd time out with it, after an hour of use. I set up a return through Amazon on the riverbank. I ordered a replacement. I had the new reel before I had a chance to ship out the old one. (I dropped it off a few days after I received the replacement.) I have Both reels, both work just as intended. but the Zebco Bullet In my opinion Is much better. I never delt with Kast King directly because I didn't have to. You didn't have to deal with Zebco.
@@scottgraham1153 I don't disagree with you and I also still believe the Bullet is a superior reel, my disappointment was the lack of care from Zebco. I started the return process through Amazon but when they asked me for a reason for the return they suggested I reach out to Zebco. Once that went nowhere, I then did the return. For whatever reason, Amazon didn't offer me an exchange option. Thank you for watching and commenting! Much appreciated 👍
@kevinf4606 I use a collapsible kayak paddle to push off and to beach myself coming in. This link is the one I use.

I seen your other video comparing these 2 and after watching I found most people had alot of issues with the plastic button you push to let the line out breaking. I had not bought one yet but appreciate the follow up video.
Thank you. I had very high hopes for the ZEBCO, but with the terrible customer service I quickly lost hope. The KastKing Brutus is a fraction of the cost and still works great.
@loucifer4205 I agree. I think I got a rare lemon, but I still believe the Bullet is superior. However, at more than double the price, the Brutus is a better value. Thank you for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!!
