Really awesome reel, I've never had a reel with a bait feeding system and the long cast spool for distance. It is an extremely rare combination to have these 2 features in one reel, matter of fact I believe there's only one other reel on the market. It's made by Penn but it's several hundred dollars. Unfortunately I moved far from the saltwater beaches before I could use these so I had to switch to my bass and Crappie gear up here. I bought them for surf but I'd take these offshore too. I have 2 of them up for auction, so if you need 2, feel free to bid on both. As an extra I took them to the tackle shop, had a professional put more than 300 yards of 50lb braid, it is filled to perfection. So it's set and ready to go, oh and I have the surf rods as well I was gonna use with these up for auction, If you'd like to check those out as well.
