Just got it but absolutely love the look and feel of the reel. Very lite in the hand. Quality craftmanship so far. Hopefully holds up to the punishment better than my last plastic reel did. I feel like I got my moneys worth.I wanted an inexpensive 5-6wt reel for my 12 year old daughter to mess with and not worry about dropping a $200 reel on the rocks or over the side of the boat while she is learning. I ordered 3 different cnc budget reels but non of them would hold 100 yds of backing. This was the fourth and the only one that didn't go back. I need 100 yds backing because it's not uncommon to hook a large summer steelhead on the Rogue River, she has landed several 6-10 lbers on bait caster with ease. I got 110 yds on it in front of 90 yd Rio WFF mid grade line and a long tippet. Will the drag handle a fall Chinook? No, but it will easily handle a 10-12 lb Steelie. Amazing machine work, finish etc for less than the price of a spare spool.I own Two of these. One for a spare 6wt fly rod and another for a spare 2wt fly rod. I believe they are very good reels for the price point.Reel looks and feels really nice. Very light weight. There some finish issues in the knob for the spool and the drag but really not a big deal given the price point. Really you’re paying for the look and style of the reel. The price point is relatively high compared to others on Amazon, but just below other reels with a sealed drag. So kind of an awkward price point but if you like the look, go for it. Haven’t fished with it yet but I’m sure it’ll fish well. Will update my review once I doLike it's weight and smoothness of movement, which is an advantage in picking up fly line quickly. It' is also a pretty reel. Buy don't expect any help from mfg in trying to switch the retrieve to right hand. As far as I can see, it can't be done. You can loosen the drag knob so that it will behave like a right hand retrieve, but then you are left with no drag. If seller can give a detailed explanation how to convert from LH to RH, I'll change my review.Quality products,Beautiful designLightAll steelFor anyone asking yes the real can be switched to the opposite hand retrieved from when it is shipped. This is a solid real smooth drag lightweight great for a youngster who starting out in flyfishing or anyone that’s starting out in flyfishing that does not want to break the bank on their first reel.Light weight, smooth drag, large arbor. All around perfect and the price is awesome because it’s very comparable to a sage reel. So 90 bucks for a reel that is just like a 200 dollar reel where can you go wrong? I’ll answer for you. You can’t ?ブラックを購入しました写真からしてネイビーっぽいと思っていましたが実物は写真5枚目が近いと思います。つまりしっかりブラックです他のレビューにあるように、ドラグノブやハンドルノブに小傷がありましたが実用上全く問題ありませんその他ドラグの細やかな調節やガタの無さ、軽さ、見た目の上品さ等、1万円のリールとしてはコスパ抜群です初心者はMaxcatch TINOの5000円以下のモデルを買い、ラージアーバーや高級感を求める人はこちらを購入すれば間違いないでしょうおすすめです
