I did not want to get all hysterical like many others about this reel and its seals and water sealing properties. You know my feelings on waterproof reels. They are awesome but 99% of surfcasters will never reel under water. I do know good value when i see it. and there is a lot more to reel than its water sealing properties. Line lay, drag, sand flush, smoothness etc….

Seals are nice, but they’re not everything. At least equally, if not more important are the gears. If the gears are of the soft die cast variety (and the manufacturer makes no claims otherwise) then they will fail when you need them most – on that trophy fish or during that blitz with 20+ pound fish on every cast.
