Shimano FX FC Spinning Reels are perfect for both freshwater and saltwater anglers looking to get more performance features for less. Redesigned for 2019, the FX FC now features a roller clutch, increased bearing count, and a propulsion spool that provides a number of benefits. The introduction of Shimano's Propulsion Line Management System means anglers can expect longer casts with fewer wind knots or backlashes.

Perfect little bay reel
August 16, 2022
I purchased four of these perfect little bay reels for flounder fishing. I pair it up with a short ugly stick and have a great time. It’s perfect for guests kids and myself. If one breaks or fails I throw it away and grab a new one. I would recommend it for any small bay fishing.

Solid reel for a very low price.

Overall a solid reel for the price that you pay. So far I have no complaints, the bail flipped on me while I was casting once but that was only one time. Drag on the reel is more than you'll need for most fish but good to know you have it just in case. Perfect for a small lightweight rod set up.
Pros
  • Light
  • Solid drag
  • Smooth
Cons
  • Somewhat of a plastic finish

Using this reel exclusively for Bass on a medium action rod. Works great most of the time. When it doesn't work well, the spool seems to bind making retrieve very difficult. Haven't been able to identify why this occurs but it always resolves itself after some time off. Next time will buy one or two models up in price/quality
Pros
  • It's a Shimano for under $25.
Cons
  • Spool binding unexpectedly
