$4$ a good bet
August 20, 2022
I have two now, a 50 and a 60. In terms of smooth casting, smooth bail return and firm reeling they are very good. I have no problems with them but I do recommend putting the correct size line on them. If you buy good quality line, these work flawlessly.
Pros
  • Very smooth auto return bail and firm reeling action.
Cons
  • Do not like cheap line.

Quantum Cabo is a workhorse
July 10, 2022
This is my 4th Cabo reel, in a range of sizes from use for inshore flounder, deeper wrecks, and Surf. They are amazing tools for fighting any species On the mid- Atlantic coast. Drag is strong AND smooth. Do yourself a favor and try one!
Pros
  • Drag, strength, durability to stand up to use, an overall great reel
Cons
  • Need a better fighting handle on the larger size

Cabo 60 is a great large profile reel
May 31, 2022
This Quantum Cabo 60 is a fantastic large profile reel... I'm using it in the surf, but it would be just as great on an offshore plug chucker. Have used 50's inshore for years, and decided to try a bigger Cabo for surf fishing and love it! Great drag, smooth as silk!!!
Pros
  • Too many to list...
Cons
  • A little on the gravy side, but it's expected...

Excellent reel!!!
March 15, 2022
The Cabo 50 is an excellent reel. Good line capacity, very very smooth drag, and lots of torque with the slower 5.3:1 retrieve, and light weight. No problem reeling in big stripers and gator blues. I just wish this thing came with a power knob!!!
Pros
  • light weight
  • lots of torque
  • smooth drag
  • line capacity
  • Quantum has good customer service.
Cons
  • The handle and knob. The knob is very uncomfortable.

Less Expensive Reels are a Better Investment
May 28, 2021
Although the fit and finish are good, and the heft feels more substantial, as long as you take care of it a less expensive Daiwa would have been a better choice.

Solid reel
March 14, 2021
But it’s heavier and about the same price as a Shimano Stradic which is a much better 4000 and 5000 class reel.
Pros
  • Drag
Cons
  • Price compared to others in its class

Great reel
February 1, 2021
Have 4 Bocas but can't get them any more so I tried the Cabo and like it a lot so far. Light weight in the 50 size and lots of drag power. Smooth drag. Great reel so far. Cost more than the Boca so I hope it lasts.
Pros
  • Strong smooth drag
Cons
  • None so far

great reel
December 13, 2020
I have the Cabo 50 and I love it. Strong smooth drag system. A little on the heavy side but very durable frame and bail. My drag clicker did brake after catching a bunch of monster sheepshead but the customer service was great and they sent me 2 clickers for free and was an easy fix. I can definitely say i would recommend this reel.
Pros
  • strong/smooth drag
  • very durable frame
  • sealed drag
  • looks cool
  • indestructible bail
  • picks up line fast and reels smoothly
Cons
  • drag clicker is prone to braking but not a big deal
  • a little on the heavy side

Drag!!!
May 29, 2020
The drag on the cabo is incredibly smooth, its never skipped on me yet. I have a few cabos that gets used for tuna and tarpon quite frequently. The cabo the best $200 ive ever spent, its a shame its always overlooked when people are shopping for a quality reel
