I have 10 of them
- Well built, counters work well , very smooth
- Non that I can say yet
I use it to drag spoons and mojos up here in the upper East coast for bass
Also use it for dragging umbrellas rigs
That being said when you have the umbrellas on and a bass you gotta max this thing out like crazy and still over play it either he rod to get the fish in
Wish they beefed up the drag
- Price for gear ratio and retrieve
- Durable corrosion Resistant body material
- Smooth Star Drag Power
- Smooth Cranking
- Comes in level wind as well as non.
- Can get a optional line counter is clear and easy to read and doesn?t get in your way of fighting fish.
- Try locating them buy it when you see it or they?ll be gone
Very noisy to cast with the non disengaging levelwind, but it does cast well.
- Price
- Lots of plastic
what is the heaviest lead for bottom fishing in 300 feet water
The Shimano Tekota 400 reel would be the recommended size to pair with your St.Croix Premier Musky 7' MH. Unless you do not want the line counter, then you could go to the Tekota 500. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.
