Excellent choice.. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional reel *by M***E on 26 September 2024* I don't have anything to add to the youtube reviews. This reel is everything it promises to be and more. I am a poor caster at the best of times, but with this reel I am chucking out well over 100 yards with a simple overhead thump, way more than with my Penn surfblaster longcast on the same rods. I am now hitting those sweet spots and my fishing just got a lot more enjoyable. ## Frequently Bought Together - Penn Tidal XT 8000 Long Cast Reel (1594965) - Medium Bait Elastic 2 x 250m Spools Dead Bait Sea & Coarse Fishing Rigs. - Save Bait!
