Actual Customer Feedback:
"I am very satisfied with this reel. I love the one hand lever operation. I have Haven't found anything it wont handle, snapper, grouper, aj's etc. My fishing partners have used it once and have already placed an order for theirs. Cant go wrong here. I might would choose the wide reel instead of the narrow if I had it to do over again. Still an awsome reel. Way to go Shimano, great product."
