I have 2 patriarchs. A good fishing buddy has the Shimano. We switch off often. I prefer the pfluger. I've never been happy with my Shimano spinning reels.

They said they would attempt to correct it or offer me an upgrade. Not sure what their going to upgrade me too since it's their flagship reel. I guess I'll just take another patriarch but I'd rather have put the money towards a Stella or a steel. I just bought a morum and thought Garcia was my new go-to. Apparently not.

Thunder black thanks for your reply. Wasn't trying to be a jerk. But contacting the company was the first thing I did. I thought with all the fisherman in this page maybe someone had experience with this reel that's all.

I didn't register to complain. And obviously my post wasn't looking for a fix. Thanks for your useless input though. I was looking for feedback on this reel and if anyone else had this problem with this reel. Already contacted pure fishing and they told me to send it in. tick poor design Imo. $300 piece of trash. Thunder black thanks for your reply.

Let me start by saying I own 2 pfluger patriarchs a Revo s among a handful of others. I use my buddies Ci4 frequently. I just purchased the new Revo mgx spin reel. Initial impression was excellent. Super light weight. Real smooth retrieve. Drag is extra smooth with no extra initial start up. Balances great on my Imx sjr 902 as well as my 7' E6x. Now the problem. The anti reverse functions correctly less than half the time. Vertical jigging the handle spins backwards 70% of the times I set the hook. Casting small jerk baits I feel it failing constantly. Have any of you guys had any similar experiences with this reel. I'm seriously fuming at this point that a reel of this caliber and price tag is failing so bad... Makes me so mad.. Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
