The monocoque body also decreases the amount of parts used in the reel, and eliminates body screws adding increased water resistance and decreasing the possibility of corrosion
Suitable for freshwater and light saltwater use
It also has multiple zippered pockets, a mesh beverage holder, a side rod pocket, a rear storage pocket, an integrated pliers sheath, MOLLE webbing, and D-rings for attaching extras
The reel has an adjustable centrifugal braking system to help with backlashes, and it has a fast 7.2:1 gear ratio for quick line pickup, so I think it works well
