Got my zillion today.  I must say this reel is very impressive!  Do you think 30lb braid is a good line for this reel?  Funny story..I showed this reel to my 82 year old father whom never buys any new equipment, he still uses 2 Mitchell 300's and a 308 they are easily 60 years old.  So anyhow, I show him the reel,  first thing he says is "is that a toy"? LOL!!  He messes with it for a few minutes and mumbled "woman's reel" LOL!! 

Love mine, and it puts a whole new meaning on the term silky smooth.   

 

 

I have 30lb Sufix 832 on a few of mine.

Sure.

Thanks for the replies

 

Congrats on the new reel! My father pretty much reacted the same at 75 years old. Of course, his Abu Ambassadors are still going strong. In fact, he still has some of the originals still brand new in box that he hasn’t touched since he bought them in the early 80’s.

 

Ill still happily stick with my Metaniums ?
