  • Super Sturdy Reel
Color: Right - Pink - Albatross 6000
I've used it a few times since purchasing it back in the Beginning of July, & it has not disappointed. I was intimidated at first, since it's my first of this style reel, but setting it up, & casting was so easy. The drag is super strong. I've gotten out of a few sticky situations that would've totally snapped my line in the past, just by reeling in. I love the bite alert. It makes Trolling super easy. The handle is also a huge plus. Easy on the hand, as you grip the fairly large knob, which helps in the overall fight against a fish. I thought $100 was a big price to pay for a reel, but after a year of comparing online, I found that it's a really good price for this reel. All metal, so you know it's meant to last. Has a really nice line capacity, too. If you're looking for a great reel, you can't beat this one, at the price it's at. The performance I've gotten from it, & the ease of reeling during a fight makes this really good overall reel. Not too heavy, & smooth casts, for all day fishing fun. So far, the only problem I've encountered has been that the line gets hung up on the hook keeper of the Ancient Mariner Challenger I paired this reel with, but I feel like that may be more user error, &/or just the wind doing it's thing. The spool spins so effortlessly, that if you're not careful, you can get a backlash, if you don't set the tension knob properly. ... show more

  • Great reel at a great price
Color: B: Left - Blue - Albatross 6000
This reel is reminiscent of the old Penn quality with a new twist. I have thrown 40pd braid on it and put it on a 9ft rod for ocean. Have not had a single issue, the casting is smooth as butter. I like how I was able to easily adjust the handle length as I have stupid hands. It casts better than my squall ii, is lite weight, holds a nice bit of line (about 400 yds of 40pd give or take) I can use it with lures or with bait, shore fishing, pier, or throw it on the boat. I would like to figure out how to get a back lock on it but… oh well. ... show more
