Had 2 Abu's; one had a epoxy bubble in the guide which snapped my line several times mid cast before I noticed/exchanged it, second shattered while pulling a hog out of the weeds. Don't get me wrong, Abu's have an amazing feel and are stupid light...but seems to come at a cost (lost lures, early ends to days on the water, lost fish etc.). Went through 6 rod brands last season ($120 range); never tried a mojo but my Shimano is worry free and I don't have to baby it. Oh yeah, that retractable handle stopped working on the first Abu as well. Didn't find it practical anyway, more of a gimic.
