Recieved this week with usual fine service from Amazon!

The item is ok, however not that much different in design compared Shakesphere model also manufactured in China for Pure Fishing Inc. Cannot find the 50% price differential between products after a feature comparison. I own both reels. Link to compare> Shakespeare Synergy Steel Underspin Reel

Pflueger expected quality does not show in this model. Shame on you Pure Fishing for importing this product.

As a user of Pflueger products for over fifty years I would expect more quality differences in the Pflueger model for the additional cost involved!

This is a replacement for another reel that finally died after 20+ years of service.
Purchased this reel as I have other reels by this maker. Upon receiving and installing on pole found that trigger release was not letting spool release for casting. Had to put an o-ring between body and spool cover to get proper amount of room between them to let the spool release for casting. Then found that there was a burr on the spool lip that would catch the line, causing the the line to stop very abruptly. After some light filing and sanding works like it is supposed to.

I like to fish with light tackle. This little job is up to the task. I have it on a five foot medium action graphite rod and have taken several nice bass over 5 lbs. with no problems. If you like a trigger lever reel this is the one for you.
