This reel features an XT-7 graphite frame, rotor and sideplate for light weight and 3 stainless-steel S A-RB ball bearings with shields on both sides to help keep out sand and salt, while Super Stopper II antireverse uses a 1-way, stainless-steel roller bearing to eliminate backplay
Constructed with a rigid, low-profile diecast aluminum frame and handle side plate, they ensure unmatched strength and stability in any fishing conditions
I evaluate handle comfort, strap durability, and whether the bag feels like it can handle being lifted repeatedly without the attachment points looking stressed
Both feature built-in PVC tubes for protection, lots of space for reels, and tackle box storage to boot
Will be posting some rods soon
I pair this with my favorite St
