Felt awesome at first, but always had issues with the spool button

We caught fish using the 710 Heavy Flippin Rod and a 3/4-ounce weight and 80-pound-test braided line penetrating heavy matted vegetation with a creature bait and found that we were able to set the hook well and pull solid keepers out of the grass quickly

With smooth drag systems and ergonomic handles, these reels provide exceptional control and comfort during long fishing sessions

You could try resting your thumb at an angle instead of pressing it on the fishing line

The Agility low profile reel contains a 2+1 bearing system, brass drive, and pinion gears for a smooth feel and dependable durability
