2nd reel (update)
March 15, 2020
I wrote a review on my 2000 series and I rated it 4 star but mentioned that eventually the screw that is on the end of the handle for the reel comes undone eventually.

Well same thing happened again on my 4000 series. These screws are very easy to lose. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TIGHTENING DOWN THAT SCREW BEFORE EVEN USING THIS REEL. Thats why Im giving it 3 star this time and Im being generous. But it is a good reel if you put all that aside. Its my go to favorite.
Pros
  • Its a great reel with high drag and smooth retrieve
Cons
  • The screw on the end of the rubber handle *where you turn the reel by hand) has come undone on both models I bought. If you drop it in the water, well your out of luck. Next you'll lose the rubber piece that it was meant to secure, and then you would be left with a bare metal reel with no handle.
  • Im very lucky I found mine both times. 2nd time it was just inches from falling off the dock.

20lb drag on a 2000 series says it all.
Pros
  • 20 lb drag
  • Super smooth
Cons
  • After a lot of use, the screw that holds the black part of the handle came loose and I almost lost it in the dark. Very lucky I found it. Just screwed it back in real tight and its perfect again

Do not buy
April 18, 2019
I bought this reel based on reviews, stating that it was a great value. One cast and the retrieve mechanism locked up on retrieve. I tried to do everything I could to fix on the water with wd 40 to no avail. When I got home I tried to remove the retaining nut. It's impossible to get off. Save your money this is a bad product. I will never buy Lews again.
Merchant Response:Sorry to hear you are having issues. This is not typical of any of the products we sell! Please reach out to us and we will get it replaced for you.
Pros
  • None. it doesnt work
Cons
  • See above. Retrieve is worse than my grandfather's zebco.
