Good Points: Usual Shimano build quality, this reel is super smooth and will give years of good service if correctly maintained (those oil holes are there for a reason guys!). The instant finger tip fighting drag lever is a joy to use the whole thing is beautifully balanced at just 290g. Casts like a dream has become in just one month my favourite match reel the usual Shimano double handle = perfect high speed retrieve.

Bad Points: I have knocked one point off and to be honest I may be being a bit harsh but do we really need this amount of flashy Gold trim and detailing. This is not a piece of jewellery it's a tool for heavens sake! I am not sure how long it will retain its very "pretty" looks and I treasure and look after my equipment. I would definitely buy another especially in gun metal grey or teflon. I am more interested in hard wearing rather than flash. Thats just my opinion though, out the box its very nice lol.

General comments: What can I say? 100% recommendation, smooth fast strong light already bagging up big style I love this reel and would buy another tomorrow. Shop around I picked up mine on E-bay 45.00 including P&P you cannot go wrong!
