I have to say I am extremely impressed with the performance of this reel. No noise during casting, super smooth and sensitive. I also was impressed with the ability of the reel to cast lighter lures. Thought I'd share for those who like a quality product but can't spend 200.00

I really like the pro qualifier reels.  I got back into fishing and picked up two of the reels last summer and just picked up another one while they are on sale now.  I haven't tried all of the higher end reels, but these are great.  They are very smooth and i can cast them a mile, with little worry about backlashes.
