I have 2 Azores.. Incredibly smooth operation... The reels work 4 days a week and are nearly indestructible..
Pros
- Love the Drag.. Line capacity and overall operation
Cons
- Wish it came with a baitrunner option like the Coronado series.. which are also great reels!

Best deal on the market.

I own 2 4000s and one 6500. I've caught thousands of striped bass on my 40s as well as flounder big bluefish and weakfish. I also run a guide service and these are the reels I set my customers up with. My 1st has been around for 3 seasons and going strong. I used to be into van staals and this will catch the same fish no problem. The reals do close on the cast and I've remove the bail from my 6500 because I bought that one to try and pop tuna. Also sometimes if you don't pay attention the line will wrap around the top of the spool at the start of the retrieve. But other than those two minor problems the reals are solid and last and can't be beat in that price point by any reel I've seen on the market there isn't even a close comparison in that price point these reels are a solid as my van Staal 150s and shimano stellas
Pros
- Solid and can last seasons and catch seriously big fish.
Cons
- Line lay problem at start of retrieve
- Bail closes on the cast

Bail me out
December 8, 2019
After casting you need to manually close the bail. I’ve never had a reel that didn’t close itself by turning the handle. Almost wondering if something is missing. Other than the bail issue everything is good
Pros
- Strong drag. Very smooth reel
Cons
- The non selfclosing bail is a bummer

I purchased the 65 for party boat fishing in Southern California and the real has not let me down!!! I have caught Dorado, Yellowtail, Rockfish, Sand Bass, Calico Bass on this reel. It's stopping power is amazing and for the price it hard to find a better reel. I will be adding 2 more of these to the rotation.

I have used this reel for jigging and popping, for around 2 years now and absolutely nothing wrong with it. Great amount of drag, torque and rigidity for winching in those big fish. Best priced reel I have ever used!
Pros
- Torque, rigid, lots of stopping power (drag).
