Worked great. Love the line counter option

Nice combo, but a Tekota 700 would have been a great option.

The Star rod works wonderfully for bunker spoons (I suspect equally well for most wire lining crankbaits). The Tekota 800 did it's job smoothly. I give this review 4 stars because the 800 is larger than I needed, the 700 would have been a better fit. Unfortunately the 700 isn't available as a combo and the price reduction made it hard to pass up. With 100 yards of 40 lbs Dacron backing and 300' of 40 lbs monel I filled the spool only about half full. I'm going to reload the backing in an effort to bring the wire closer to the top of the spool.
Pros
- Wire line combo that works well together.
- Price point will save some serious $ compared to purchasing separately.
Cons
- The Tekota 800 is bigger than my application required. The 700 would be a superb reel for bunker spoons with 300' of wire. I'm sure the 800 works better under the right circumstances.
