Customer Reviews

very good reel for a very good price
Growing up, my father always purchased Zebco 33's because those are just good reels. I broke with the Zebco tradition when I purchased this reel as MY first reel six years ago. I use it for catching catfish, bream and white perch (crappie/sac au lait). The reel casts incredibly smoothly. In fact, I've had very-seasoned fishermen express surprise at how smoothly it casts.

I don't take very good care of my reel, so I recently pulled it to pieces to clean and oil it. It was very easy to put back together and works like a charm now that it's got clean oil in it.

Using this reel, I find that I have very good control in my casting which is important when fishing for bream or white perch. If I ever have to pitch my old reel, I won't hesitate to buy another one.

So far, so ok
The reel seems to work ok. Nothing too special. I've used it a few times without any problems with the reel itself. But the fishing line it came pre-spooled with is completely worthless. It has so many nicks and abrasions on it that it breaks at every chance. I put new line on it after the third use of the supplied fishing line.

Spincast reel
Real smooth action. Easy to use, but the screw metal is cheap, and the stud broke when I tightened it too much.
