Love this reel. Very smooth casting. Happy with my purchase. The Royale Legend rod feels great as well, got 7’6” medium/heavy fast and it’s an awesome set up.
I fell in love with this reel from the first cast. I only had it for a month because I unfortunately left it at a boat ramp loading the truck back up. It quickly became my favorite out of the reels that I have. It was a very sad day losing it. It's a whole combo that I would highly recommend to everyone I know.
t does just like it's advertised; 0 thumb-0 back lash. I was casting into the wind and had no problems. Nice feel and light. Looks nice on the Royal Legend pro rod. I wish it was available in metallic black or charcoal grey so I could put it on other rods. I have this reel, a Kestrel finesse, a Zephyr finesse that all 3 are 0 thumb. You have the technology, why not make ALL your reels that way!
This reel is amazing. I was skeptical at first, but this reel is a true work of art. To truly appreciate it you have to buy it and see it in person because pictures don’t do it any justice. Although it’s a graphite frame it is sturdy and the auto mag brake is wow. Once you dial this reel in you don’t even need to use your thumb. I have it spooled with ten pound mono and you can put quite a bit of line on it. The drag and spool tension knob have a clicker so you’ll always know how much you’re adjusting. One huge plus is it has line out clicker so when you’re fighting a fish you people will know and hear your drag go off. I truly enjoy this reel and I’ll give it 4/5 stars. If it was an aluminum frame this reel would be 5/5.
I was pleasantly surprised of how good this reel performed. I’m on the water around 100 days a year and use several brands. This reel so far is comparable with my high end reels. Only time will tell.
