5 Duck duke
We have a couple of these on hand on Fenwick Eagles with 20# braid. Good fluke and sea bass reel. Just make sure you wash it down, not saltwater sealed that well.

5 Drawbar
I ran across one a few weeks back. I have to say it is a very smooth reel! These Abu Sweden made models are solid! Smoother cast then anything I have used before. Last year I cheaped out and regretted it. Hope to catch some big fish this year! Definitely worth the price!

5 call2die4
So far so good for a first time baitcaster user. Have had couple of nest when I forgot to put my thumb on the line but after adjusting brake at every sinker change and holding thumb on the line when casting and a few fishing trips everything has been good. Very solid reel but still waiting on catching that big flattie for the true test.

5 Cpolly89
In my opinion this is one of the best round reels u can get for the price point. Mostly use for catfish but can ’ t wait to try for some big stripers and maybe even some Muskie

5 Johnny
Left hand wind is a must for me. I am right handed but never figured out why so many people choose to cast with their right hand and then switch hands so they can wind with their right hand. The size and weight are also just right as I mainly fish for striped bass and blue catfish with this reel perfect on a seven foot medium action rod and 15 lb. test mono. I caught a fish on my second cast and anticipate catching many more in the future.

5 Danieldg35
Love this reel. I 've had it in the past and it's a solid reel for the money.

5 69daytona
Have been using my `` Made in Sweden '' Ambassadeur S. I. X. for something like 20 years, fishing freshwater for anything up to Lake Ontario Salmon to Saltwater Plugging for Bluefish, Striped Bass and Wahoo from boat off NJ coast. `` BEST '' fishing reel ever made! During all these years of catching fish up to 30 pounds, it has never let me down. Just got another Rod for largemouth Bass and beach fishing in the Gulf, so it needs a good reel. Just hope the made in China reels have the same superb workmanship and Longevity of my S. I. X.

Recently purchased, didn ’ t have a lot of faith that it would work well but it definitely surprised me. I put 10lb braid on and was throwing a light spoon. This thing was able to handle an all out cast and went about 40 yards. I ’ m definitely going to be getting a lot more travel use out of this little thing then I thought.

5 Jon8956
This reel is a prime example of when engineering meets functionality. Its extremely lightweight, sleek and has excellent adjustments for precision casting. It also solves the problem of being able to throw light lures a long way so you can put your lures in the strike zone without getting too close and spooking the fish. The reel action and drag are both exceptionally smooth and the ergonomics are fantastic even for those with slightly larger hands. This reel will remain a favorite in my fishing arsenal for foreseeable future.

5 Mikee82087
This reel is so smooth and cast so good and is built great feels good and comfortable in hand the brakes work great and allow casting with no backlash in this is hands down the best reel I have ever owned don ’ t hesitate to buy it I highly recommend it!

5 KYC8
This is my first BFS baitcasting reel, and it lives up to the promises of being able to cast lighter baits further. It certainly works better once dialed in properly, but as a relative novice on casting reels I was able to get near optimal settings within a two attempts and was matching my casting distances compared to a spinning reel. The gear ratio makes for a faster retrieve, and the overall weight is very light when paired with an ultralight rod. I will still keep a spinning reel for when I want to drop a bait to a certain depth since that is easy to measure by counting turns on the reel, but for all other finesse applications I will most likely be using this reel in the future.

5 FlyingColoradoHawaiian
I 'm glad I chose this reel as my first Bait caster reel! Easy to learn and it casts tiny jigs during the early spring bite.

5 Kevin1189
This KastKing BFS reel is unbelievably lightweight and feels incredibly luxurious. The finish looks amazing and the gears feel smooth. It can cast small baits into the distance. The carbon fiber handles and grips do run small but overall great reel.

Abu Garcia has released two of these “ budget ” combos in recent years, bearing the same name but the combos are much different. This current model sports a digital camo look, with a sleek flat black reel and solid rod. If you ’ re a fan of their Vengeance combo, this one will be a favorite as it ’s the same reel design reskinned for the Jordan Lee branding. It ’s not as low profile as the original Joran Lee combo was but it ’s still a solid workhorse for the money.

Got this a few weeks ago and only used it a couple of times but it sure beats all my old baitcasters I have! Drag and brake are easy to set and use. Retrieve ratio is perfect for my needs and it's pretty rugged. Kastking seems to be best bang for the buck compared to other brands.

5 Bob Tee
Just got this about a week ago and only used it twice, but so far it has performed great! Love the styling and look of the reel. Kastking has produced a winner with this one!

5 FlyFisherman12
I bought this a few weeks ago and my first impressions are that it is well constructed, super smooth casting, and light. The weight isn ’ t much of a big deal for me but I have to have a smooth reel and this fits the bill! I love that the side plate stays connected when you release it. The bearings seem to be great quality!

5 Jaime__I
I 'm still working on my skills with baitcasting reels. This Megajaws is the other side of the coin compared with me other reels. It is compact, light and well finished. It help me a to work on the precision instead of worrying about getting bird nests.

5 JJOmazing
I just ordered this reel last week and wanted to provide a detailed review of my recent purchase. Just as another reviewer shared, it is advertised as black, but my reel was a vibrant red. I spooled it with a 10lb braid and cast it with soft plastics with a 1oz weight. I set the tension so the lure just barely dropped from the end of the rod, then set the drag to 5/10. There are micro- adjust settings between the typical settings, meaning 0. 5 increments are possible. Once casting, wow, this thing can really send the bait pretty far. I would estimate I was regularly getting 35- 40yard casts on a relatively lightweight lure. Plus I was able to drop it the lure exactly where I wanted it to go. The reel is pretty typical size in the hand when palming. I would say its not the biggest or smallest, but it was comfortable to use. There is another switch on the back of the reel that changes the reel function to allow for flipping and pitching. I 've never seen this before on a reel and typically just used my thumb on the spool. When this is activated, you press the button holding it during the flip and let- go when you want the line to stop advancing. It took a few tries to get used to, but is still very intuitive to use. If you forget to switch it back when going back to do a normal long cast, it can be a surprise. However, I think it is a nice feature. I was able to catch some bass as a local pond with it and the drag was very smooth. There are a lot of bearings on this reel, box says 11+1, and it feels like it. I have multiple bait- casters, including some other higher end models, and this MegaJaws Elite reel fits right along side the others.
