    • Great product / Great delivery
Fantastic little reel. It takes a bit to get the overspin sorted, but once you get that dialed in for your different lures it works well. Took one to Belize for a fishing trip and gave it a good work out on 'coutta's, Yellow Jacks and blue runners. The reel survived some heavy runs, and the drag was smooth most of the time, just a bit of pick up at the top end. Overall, a great piece of kit at a good price. ... show more

    • Perfect for the weekend angler!
Style: Black Max (Old Model) Size: Left-Handed - Box
I've been a spinning guy my whole life. When I recently decided to buy my first baitcaster, I went to all the online forums and tried to decipher what I should spend my money on. Well, I quickly found out that if I spent anything less than $150 on a baitcasting reel, it would be a complete waste. I might as well tie a string to a can opener, and fish with that! Fortunately, I've been through this before with other hobbies, so I decided to ignore the haters, and spend a measly $40 on the Black Max. And I made the right decision! If you're a beginner, trust me, the Black Max should be your first baitcaster. It's smooth, casts far, and has plenty of drag. Sure, it takes some practice to learn how to use a baitcaster. I used cheap mono for a while until I got comfortable with it. But after a few fishing trips, I made the switch to braid, and haven't looked back! Yes, you will get a few backlashes in the beginning. It's not as big a deal as you might think. Just start with a tight tension knob, and then loosen it up over time. You'll pick it up pretty quick. I now have two of these reels. They are on $40 Berkley rods, and guess what? I catch fish! And I mean, a lot of fish! Big fish, little fish, in between fish... they don't seem to mind that I'm using cheap equipment. My PB is currently 6 lbs, 2 oz, using my trusty Black Max. In all seriousness, if you're a pro, go ahead and spend the bucks on high dollar stuff. Or if you fish several times a week, I can see investing more. But for the weekend angler, this reel is perfect! P.S. if you are right handed, and you've spent your whole life turning the reel on spinning gear with your left hand... buy left handed baitcasters! You'll thank me later. Update: 4 months later, I now have 3 of these, they’re still awesome! 2nd update: It’s been 8 months since my last update to this review. I’ve been using my 3 Black Max reels for everything... Texas rig, jigs, lipless cranks, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits... you name it. All 3 reels are just as smooth and strong as the day I took them out of the box. I’ve performed minimal maintenance, and I’m fairly tough on them. But they are rock solid! If you’re on the fence about this one, don’t be! Just buy one and try it out. But beware, they’re so good, you might end up buying several more! Last update: I thought I would provide one more update... 2 years later! My Black Max reels are still amazing! I haven’t cleaned them, lubed them, or ever taken them apart to work on them. They are still smooth, strong, and work great. Still hands down, the absolute best beginner reel on the market. And experienced guys will love them too! ... show more

    • Great cheap reel

Solid reel, bought to setup a reel for my compatriots; it’ll catch fish and at a reasonable price.

    • great reel
Style: Black Max (Old Model) Size: Right-Handed - Box
I bought this reel sight unseen because the price was right. As it turns out, it was a great reel. I use this type of reel as a bait caster for catfish believe it or not. The spool is not large which would deter some fishermen from using it as a bait caster. But the spool is big enough. It holds about 125 yards of 20 lb test line, which is more than plenty of line. With it's anti backlash adjustment, and it's spool tension adjustment, you can set it for all weather conditions and can get long good casts. This is a very good reel. I would definitely recommend it. ... show more

    • Good enough, and the price is right
Style: Black Max (Old Model) Size: Left-Handed - Box
This earns five stars because of the quality for the price. Obviously it's not a super high quality reel, but it is an excellent value. I prefer not to have super expensive gear, so I don't feel like I have to baby everything. This is my first low profile baitcaster. After it arrived, I paired it with a 6' rod and set to work learning how to cast with it. After about 50 casts, I had it figured out. After three short mornings of fishing, it has worn in appreciably so it casts further than when it was out of the box new. It's not the same "feeling" of quality as my Ambassadeur C3, but it catches fish just fine. I would say that you can make more casts per minute than a spinning rig, but fewer than with a fly rig. For the price it's a great rig. I'd rather spend my money on good line and good hooks than rods and reels. I feel like you can really go cheap with spinning gear because once the bail is open, there are no moving parts to limit the length of cast. For every other type of reel (except fly) the quality of the reel will affect cast distance. This reel is good enough quality that I don't really think about it when I'm fishing, and it casts really well. ... show more

    • Great reel
My father an avid angler all his life has allway used abugarcia reels, me being a more casual fisherman, have always struggled to cast with out backlash open faced reels. I purchased a pair of these and delighted to find I could cast these mostly if not completely backlash free! Might not be the reel for the pro but for the 5-7 times a year fisherman they are are awesome. ... show more

    • Great value and easy to use
Style: Max X (New Model) Size: Right-Handed - Box
It seems to be a great value for the money. Its also extremely easy to use being my first baitcaster i thought I’d struggle but i can fish a few hours at a time with it and only have a couple backlashes.
