Not a $200 reel, but...
Considering the price...killer product. Others have mentioned the main flaw. The space between reel an the reel cage will allow the line to slip or get jammed between them occasionally. Not often enough to rule this reel out. I fixed the problem by building up the reel case/frame with metal epoxy and shaping it to close the tolerance. No issues now.The drag settings are very course. Pretty much little drag or a lot of drag with slight adjustments. My opinion, drag is over rated on fly reels. If you can dial in a setting you like, you're good. And you can with this reel.Great starter reel or backup.Update: was contacted by customer service. They felt that the reel was defective + it has a 1 yr warranty. They sent me a replacement within a few weeks. It's a much better reel. The spacing between the spool and cage is much tighter. The spool fit on the bearing shaft, is quite a bit better. I've beat the hell out of the first one and it just keeps working. QC might not be as good as one might like, but when this reel is right...it's a pleasure to fish with. Hats off to customer service. I'd check with them before you post a review. They are very helpful.

I paired this 3/4 weight reel with a Fenwick World Class 6-piece, 8-ft rod and it balances very well. I wanted a smaller weight reel/rod setup that is easy to carry through woods and fish on smaller mountain streams in PA. Used it recently on the Lehigh River as a test (a larger waterbody than what I bough it for) and it casts very well. The fly line, backing and tapered leader is already included which is a nice bonus. The only thing I have to do is reverse the line because I cast with my left arm (my stronger arm) and reel with my right hand and this handle is on the left. The only minor issue is that the drag doesn't adjust correctly. At the highest setting, the reel doesn't even turn. The range of drag is way too broad. I only use the lowest 2 clicks, if that makes sense. I think there are 10 click settings. Overall, a very good reel that comes prespooled for less than $30.

I’ve had it out 2 times now. Love the light rod setup. Have caught some 17- 20” trout with it and it handled them pretty good. This is the 3 WT reel. I would recommend it as a backup rig.

I know it's a cheap knockoff reel, but for the price it's really pretty good. I have Orvis, Lamson, Hardy, and mostly other high-end reels, and this one was purchased to stay in my roofrack flyrod case so I didn't really want to spend a bunch. Bought on a whim. I had no real expectations but the line cast well and floated fine, the drag was smooth and easily adjustable, and it handled the first fish, a 4-pound rainbow, with no issue. I was able to easily adjust the drag while the fish was on without screwing up. And it's pretty good looking too. We'll see how long it lasts but so far it's been a good purchase.
