I honestly think this is a nicer reel than my Penn Slammer 5500. Which was over $100 more expensive. It’s super smooth and fits a huge amount of line on it. Now I just need to get a custom boat rod made with matching colors. I also bought the Diawa BG 4500 and this thing is a beast! Love this reel! I added the ball handle for like $30 Gomex or something like that. Getting a hold one for the BG next.

if you want a quality reel that will take some abuse than you will like this reel. I own several saltist and saltist back bay reels never had any issues with any reel in years. from tarpon to monster snook and monster reds. these reels have caught them all. great smooth drag

Great saltwater reel awesome sealed drag. Never failed me castes like crazy with 40lb braid... I fish the canal and have Dragged In my fair share of 40 lb bass on this real never had it fail. I own three and would buy them over and over. Great bang for the buck in a saltwater reel.

Spinning reels have really evolved in the west coast the last 5 years with thinner braid and more drags....
