So far this has been the best retractor for the money. Abel is probably the best however they are significantly more expensive. I learned my lesson using the cheap retractors made of plastic. They break. I have lost some very expensive accessories with them.

After too many cheap nippers and cheap zingers I bit the bullet with a pair of Abel nippers and the Arrowhead zinger. They are built like a tank and feature a synthetic fiber cable that is very supple with enough length to pull around my front side with my pack on my back. Two years later they function just as they did on day one- any wear to the cable is negligible and the action of the extension/retraction is butter smooth. If you fish hard and rig and re rig frequently you will appreciate the quality of the Arrowhead zinger. As another reviewer has mentioned there are cheaper zingers with a stronger pull for heavier items but as a dedicated nipper zinger these are second to none that I’ve experienced.

This product is not cheap and frankly does not have the power of models that are a fraction the cost...

Great addition to your gear for sure, the quality is superb compared to cheaper ones that seem to fail unexpectedly.
