Sharky Baitfeeder III Spinning Reel

This a quiet and smooth reel , I have 2 other reels I use for trout and love them

Several people recommended this reel when I asked about fishing for gar. I was pretty worried when I seen the size. Man we landed 3 on this reel from 4-6 ft long!

Bought this reel for a trip to the Texas coast to fish for Reds, and big uglies. Loved the idea of the separate bait feeder drag system. After putting it to use I can say it has exceeded my expectations. It handled itself well against some larger, strong big uglies. I’m very impressed.

Reel works great for saltwater fishing. Very smooth and strong. I was able to catch a shark and a eel with it and it healed up perfectly.

I used this recently on a day out with a buddy and our young boys. Tossed a sucker out on a bobber with the rear drag as loose as possible and the feeder engaged while we helped the boys fish for panfish. Didn’t need to watch the bobber really since we could hear when the fish was on and someone would grab the pole and start reeling. It was fun, and I imagine using this reel to dead stick would be great too

Smooth, strong, and worth the price. I got the 5000 and smooth and quiet.
