    I've used 3 of these reels for over 15 years now. The only problem I've had is the clicker. I use the clicker and all three don't click anymore or haven't from about the second time I used them. Other than that they've been great reels.

    I have one had it about 2 years. Can't beat it for the money. I've caught some pretty good flat heads with it.

    I think it’s a great cheap reel, and I don’t even wanna call it that. Had it 3 years or so. And it works just as great as the day I bought it. Casting is a breeze, so smooth. I don’t even have a complaint with it.

    I know plastic is part of modern manufacturing but i avoid reels with it inside as much as possible. I'm running late 50's early 60's Pfluger rockets and mid 80's Daiwa Sealine 47h reels , the Daiwa reels are really trolling reels and a touch to big but the Rocket is perfect

      Seems like allot of high end reels have plastic cog wheels now days the Abu Garcia rockets have been using them for quite awhile now I haven’t tried and pflugers I’ll have to give them a shot

    They are cheap I got four of them paid 30.00 each at basspro!!! I am on my second year with mine!! The clicker is loud and I like mine better than the Sweden abus I got because of price point!!! Going go check that channel out now!!! And mines the 1000 size

    Hi ,as with many budget reels they can be made in the one factory and different companies sell them calling the same reel a different name.Pretty sure that is the same reel another company calls it a Aihua.I have seen a takedown on one and the reason the clicker comes on under load is the spool tolerance is not the best and it can move enough to engage it .

      @carpandcatfishbaitstipstri7309  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would say you are probably correct I haven't seen that reel but most budget reels are painted a different color and called something else

      @@carpandcatfishbaitstipstri7309 Yes for sure.If you want a Piscifun chaos xs in gold and black trim with a paddle handle ,the LEWS SC600 is exactly it.Although I think they charge a bit more for it ,the reel is exactly the same,even has that weird design with that triangle plate on the clicker side.

Catfish sumo is the same as a kast king rover as well. The other lews reel that is silver in nature is also the same as a kast king rover

    I caught the biggest fish of my life on that real 64l blue. The real was junk though not going to lie! Lol the line tensioner would get stuck on either side as you reeled and you would have to pop it off with your finger every crank. My heart was literally in my stomach the whole time fighting that fish I just knew it was going to pop the line but it didn't and I landed it. Matter-of-fact Todd Rossen netted the fish!

      @on_empty 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah I actually had two of them the first one the clicker wore out within a matter of a month and the other one lasted about a year then I use the other one for parts and fixed the second one until it finally crapped out. I don't think they were very expensive it at all they were okay for the money and like I said I caught the biggest fish of my life on one so it definitely got its money's worth LOL

    I’ve always used spinning reels, so I’m curious what the clicker does, and what it does when it breaks. If I bought one, should I just remove the clicker? I imagine I could find a how-to video.
