what do you guys think?

Glad i was able to help! Just t let you know i turned 4 other guys onto that reel and they never looked back. I do own some more exspensive bait casters but to be 100% honest i really dont see that much of a difference in the performance of the 2 reels. The best thing you can do is every once in a while give your reel a shot of oil where it needs it. At least once a year take your reel apart and and clean it real good. Ardent makes a really nice reel cleaning kit that comes with everything you need. After you do that you may even notice that your reel works better than it did new. You do that and your reel will last you for years.
