The Abu Garcia bait casters are good reels. They don't look high tech like a lot of the newer designs, but they work! Strong drags and very reliable. I have a couple of the 5500 and 6500. I use them primarily for trolling now, but I used a 6500c as my primary casting reel for many years. It's a little big for that, but I have big hands and it fit well. It's the reel I was using when I caught that big fish I mentioned. A 43lb Striper on 14lb test mono. That drag got a serious workout and performed flawlessly. If it hadn't, I would have never even seen that fish.Got a couple of Abu Garcia's. Revo and 5000 or some # ?. I prefer the Lews I have. Cast better. Never caught anything big to test the drag.
