This reel is smaller than I thought. It is best used on small lakes and or rivers for trout or smaller fish. The drag in the back works fine but is the cheapest part of the real (plastic). The reel work really well however, though it does not hold a ton of line, but enough to launch a bobber out there. The handle has a screw on the reverse side the allows it to be collapsed when loosed- for travel… I found that after about 50 casts this hand tightened screw can loose a few twist- Overall a great little inexpensive reel, for beginner to modest- Caught more than a few 10-12 inchers on this guy, and it will last more than just this season- Highly recommended for the price if you application is for the under 20″ -type of fish- it has an overall smooth and quite action to it

I love the rear drag on this reel. I have had one for over a year now and it is still working great so I wanted a couple more for some of my other rods. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a light weight and easy to use reel.
